Content & Trigger warnings
All books contain some type of psychological trigger. I care about the mental health of my readers! So below I’ve listed all the triggers/content warnings I can think of, for your convenience.
Q. Why are they not listed inside the book itself?
A. These keywords can land a book into Amazon’s ‘dungeon’ where they are informally blacklisted and not shown to possible new readers. And some people don’t like content warnings because they might be ‘spoilery’. This way, readers have a choice and the only way I can keep everyone happy!
