Terms & Conditions/Refunds

Effective Date: October 25, 2025

Welcome to SheilaLeeBrown.com, TZ-Books.com, and TickleZombie.com (collectively, the “Sites”). These websites are operated by Sheila Lee Brown (a.k.a. the multi-hyphenate behind TZ Books and Tickle Zombie). By accessing or using any part of these Sites, you agree to the following Terms and Conditions. If you don’t agree—cue dramatic exit—you should stop using the Sites immediately.

  1. Intellectual Property

All content on these Sites—books, blog posts, poems, graphics, merchandise designs, and even the snazzy little header fonts—are the intellectual property of Sheila Lee Brown, unless otherwise noted. This includes both copyrighted works and trademarked elements like “TZ Books” and “Tickle Zombie.”

Please don’t copy, reproduce, distribute, or use any content without written permission. (Sharing is caring—piracy is not.)

  1. Products and Services

My Sites showcase books and merchandise, many of which are available through third-party retailers. If you click a book link, you’ll be whisked away to a bookstore like Amazon or Barnes & Noble. For print-on-demand merchandise, I use a Spreadshirt storefront embedded into my shop page.

3. Refunds and Returns

All items are purchased through a third-party retailer (Amazon, Spreadshirt, etc). Please check with the retailer for their refund and return policy. 

4. User Conduct

If you comment, message, or interact on the Sites, please keep things respectful and positive.

5. Privacy

Your privacy is important. Please see the Privacy Policy for details on how your information is collected and used.

Affiliate Links & External Resources

Some links may be affiliate links, which means I may earn a small commission if you click and buy. It doesn’t cost you extra—and every little bit helps fuel the creative engine (and dark chocolate supply).

I’m not responsible for the content or policies of third-party sites.

Sheila Lee Brown is a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for sites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to amazon.com, etc.

6. Modifications

I may update these Terms at any time. When I do, the “Effective Date” will change. It’s your job to check back in now and then, but I’ll do my best to keep things reasonable and transparent.

7. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the United States and the state of South Carolina
