Returns & Refund Policy

1. Eligible Refunds or Replacements

We’ll replace your book (or refund you) if:

• It arrives damaged in shipping.
• It contains a printing defect (e.g., misprint, missing pages).
• We sent the wrong item.

Please notify us within 7 days of delivery with: your order number, photos of the issue, and a short description.

2. Not Covered

• You change your mind after ordering.
• You don’t like the AI-generated humor or story style.
• Errors came from the details you entered (e.g., typos, wrong names).
• Shipping is delayed by carriers once the order has been sent.

3. Shipping Costs

If your claim is approved, we’ll cover all replacement shipping costs.
