Content Warnings

I have…a lot of books out. And content warnings aren’t something I ever thought of. Rather than go back and edit everything, I’m going to start linking to this page, which I’ll keep updated with releases for those in need of them.

It’s tricky because what I find triggering isn’t necessarily what others find triggering. With some older books I haven’t reread for several years, I might not recall every specific trigger, and if I’ve missed something, I apologize. I am doing my best.

Note that the warnings do not go into detail or mention specific characters. They do mention whether it’s on or off page.
