a tan puppy sits on a gray surface and looks at the camera. she has a bump in the middle of her forehead with a tuft of lighter colored fur, and her eyes are wideset. she's a magical unicorn.

a side profile of the Twilight Sparkle the unicorn puppy. the bump on her noggin is pronounced from this angle.

an x-ray of the same side profile. it appears that her skull protrudes on her forehead, and there is some extra tissue present as well.

This is Twilight Sparkle. She was born with a bump on her head made of soft tissue instead of bone. It's led to a buildup of fluid in her brain and seizures. While there's no cure, it can be managed with lifelong medication and bloodwork. You can help her below ❤️‍🩹

Pray for me, y’all. My agent asked about my WIP and I’m sending her two chapters today. I hope she’s into vampiric mummies 🤷🏽‍♀️

Three women stand side by side in a conference room, smiling and holding their books. The woman on the left wears a purple patchwork dress and holds a copy of The Filling Station. The woman in the middle wears a black dress and holds The Edge of Yesterday. The woman on the right, dressed in a black outfit with a red top, holds Better Than Sweet. They stand on a patterned carpet with gray chairs and a neutral wall behind them.

A nice shot of some fantastic authors at Black Book Bash. Vanessa Miller, Rita Woods, Rhonda Mckinght.

Saturday night on MeTV- he’s walking, yes indeed- when a fiery accident results in the Gill Man becoming an air-breathing land creature- and relearning why humans are his enemies! Rex Reason, Jeff Morrow and Leigh Snowden find “ The Creature Walks Among Us”- 8 pm eastern/pacific, 7 central time!

Yes,I did that 🔺🐘🔺

She does realize this is her fault, right?

#Svengoolie

“Bobby” is the FAFO episode in #DeadofNight

#Svengoolie

Agreed

OMG! They dancing to the beat of the gif 🤣🤣🤣

First time I saw “Bobby” in #DeadofNight it took me a minute to realize the husband repeating everything was a trick. I just thought he was annoying.

#Svengoolie

I think she’s dinner

She didn’t even hide her Satan circle on the floor.

#Svengoolie

🤣🤣

Oooh! Love that!

“How many doors are in the house?” is a creepy-ass question given she ain’t escaping through not a one tonight!

#Svengoolie

Good one!

The zoom-in on the kid’s face is a “dead” giveaway… see what I did there? 😁

And though I missed “There’s No Such Thing as Vampires” (of course there are!), I always kinda wished Karl was actually a vampire and kills the husband in the end.

#Svengoolie

And yet she hasn’t called her husband to say their dead son just walked through the door 🤦🏾‍♀️-this is me the whole episode

#Svengoolie

Ain’t no way I’m gonna be in a house that big after summoning the devil and NOT have every last light on in the, let alone answering the door 🤦🏾‍♀️

Made for the best part of #DeadofNight on #Svengoolie
