Terms of Service

Intellectual Property

All content on this Substack, including but not limited to the serialized novel, is the intellectual property of M.D. Kenney. Subscribers may not reproduce, distribute, or republish this work without prior written consent (with the exception of normal use within Substack like restacks, quotes, etc. that directly link back to the original content.)

Content is provided solely for personal, non-commercial reading. Commercial use, adaptations, or derivative works are prohibited without permission.

Payment

Paid subscriptions are managed securely through Substack’s payment processor. All subscription sales are final unless otherwise specified. But if you have any questions or concerns about your subscription, please reach out.

Community Guidelines

Respectful discussion is welcome in comments. Spam, harassment, or spoilers may be removed at the author’s discretion.

Disclaimers

This publication provides original fictional content. It is offered “as is” without warranties of any kind. The author assumes no responsibility for any consequences arising from reading this work (except hopefully your enjoyment).

The author reserves the right to update these terms at any time. Continued subscription or use constitutes acceptance of any changes.

Privacy & Cookies

This publication is hosted on Substack. That means some information is collected automatically when you visit or subscribe — things like your email address (if you give it to us), your IP address, and basic details about how you interact with posts. You can read Substack’s Privacy Policy for the full breakdown.

On top of that, I use Google Analytics to understand how readers find and use this site. Google Analytics uses cookies (small text files stored on your device) to track anonymous information such as:

  • Which pages are visited and how often

  • Where visitors come from (e.g. search engines, social media, newsletters)

  • Basic device/browser information

This helps me see what’s working, improve the site, and focus on content readers enjoy.

Opting out

If you don’t want Google Analytics to track your visits, you can:

  • Use your browser’s built-in “Do Not Track” or cookie-blocking settings

  • Install Google’s opt-out browser add-on

Email data

If you subscribe, your email address is stored by Substack so I can send you posts. I don’t sell or share subscriber emails. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email.
