Our Accessibility Goal

We aim to make this website reasonably accessible and user-friendly for people with disabilities, including visitors who use screen readers, keyboard navigation, text resizing, captions, contrast adjustments, or other assistive technologies.

As a practical accessibility goal, we strive to follow the general principles of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines, commonly known as WCAG, where reasonably possible.

Ongoing Efforts

Accessibility is an ongoing process, not a one-time checkbox with a little corporate bow on it.

We make reasonable efforts to improve accessibility by:

  • Using readable text and clear page structure where possible.
  • Providing descriptive link text when practical.
  • Adding alternative text to meaningful images where appropriate.
  • Avoiding unnecessary barriers to navigation.
  • Reviewing website design, formatting, and content for usability concerns.
  • Updating content and design practices as accessibility needs become known.

Because this website may include creative visuals, book covers, decorative artwork, embedded content, third-party retailer links, forms, plugins, or externally hosted materials, some portions of the site may not always be fully accessible at all times.

Third-Party Content

This website may link to or embed content from third-party platforms, including but not limited to book retailers, newsletter services, social media platforms, video hosts, review platforms, payment processors, analytics providers, plugins, or other external services.

We do not control the accessibility features, design, coding, or content of third-party websites or services. However, we make reasonable efforts to choose tools and platforms that support accessibility where practical.

Known Limitations

Some content may present accessibility challenges, including but not limited to:

  • Older images or graphics that may not yet include complete alternative text.
  • Decorative or atmospheric artwork used for fictional, promotional, or branding purposes.
  • Embedded third-party content.
  • PDFs, downloads, forms, plugins, or retailer pages not fully controlled by the website owner.
  • Color, contrast, layout, or formatting issues that may appear differently across devices, browsers, or assistive technologies.

We are working to identify and improve these issues over time.

We will make reasonable efforts to respond and provide the requested information or assistance.

No Guarantee of Full Compliance

While we make good-faith efforts to improve accessibility, we cannot guarantee that every page, feature, file, image, plugin, third-party service, or piece of content will be fully accessible at all times.

Accessibility improvements are ongoing, and we welcome feedback that helps us identify and resolve barriers.
