Lilith got home from surgery today. Seanna took out a loan to get it but it will need to be paid back. Precious pup is woozy and angry. but man, LOOK AT THE SIZE OF THE STONES they took out of her. There were 6 of them, 3 are sent off to lab to figure out what caused them. gofund.me/4c130025d

Little dog is out of surgery and comes home later today. I'll post pics and updates as I get them. A loan meant she could have the surgery and save her life. But that loan needs to be paid back. gofund.me/4c130025d nearly half way there! You all so so rock!

Want to help save a little dog? Please? gofund.me/4c130025d

Some of you remember our fundraiser help Seanna Ladd get treatment for a tumor on her nose that was bleeding constantly. It didn't fully heal. However, it DOES seem to be responding to laser treatments. Each treatment is $1,325.00 and the doctor estimates she needs two more. gofund.me/43417c343

Todays post and story is from the web series we did back in 2009 called "Raising Kayn". youtu.be/UfRzbidcYMA The scene was unscripted so all that rant was improvised and It was different every time. I think the director chose the right one. ( Please vote faceofhalloween.org/2025/taunya-... )

Photo is a short film we shot that never was edited. faceofhalloween.org/2025/taunya-...) We had a guy running for sheriff play as a police officer that we kill in our fake fight. Someone leaked the footage the night before the election and he lost. I felt so bad we tabled the short film.

Todays story and video is a comedy horror short we did one day for fun. It's a whole 1 minute long. Enjoy! youtu.be/OFaBIYq8s0Q [also voting link! faceofhalloween.org/2025/taunya-... ] Lets see if you can figure out how we did the popcorn effect. I'll tell anyone who guesses it right.

Today's picture is from the feature film "Blood Corral", the second to the last film I acted in. (also Link for voting! faceofhalloween.org/2025/taunya-... ) Blood Corral is a thriller/horror about writers and their characters. THIS is one of the bad guys played by the wonderful Patrick Sane.

(link here, today until 9pm pacific it's 2 votes for one so PLEASE vote today! faceofhalloween.org/2025/taunya-... ) Yes, I was a stunt double for sweet Lillian on the Disney show. . I learned a lot on that set from one producer who was there to make sure the little girls were dressed modestly.

Okay, todays picture and story... but first, THE VOTING LINK! faceofhalloween.org/2025/taunya-... Years ago I was in an action film called "Love 2 Hate". One night on location there was a zombie film shooting next door.. And the thing with zombies is, they just don't know their boundaries.

Photo and story to go along with todays voting link. (please vote here faceofhalloween.org/2025/taunya-...) This is from a short film called "Zombo" by the awesome Lucas Millhouse. I was first to die. 😃 I also ended up buying everyone lunch and so got executive producer credit.

So, to change it up a bit so it's not boring, along with my voting link I'll be posting some photos from some of the horror projects I've done. 😃 Todays project photo is from "Power Play" about a victim vs a serial killer. faceofhalloween.org/2025/taunya-... (project photo and stories in comments)

Worldcon was an interesting ride. All told I was on 29 hours of panels, mostly about film making (but a couple about other things). I didn't get to really see much else of the convention. I missed so many wonderful concerts, missed the art show, missed panels...but still had an amazing time!

Amazing news! La Belle Dame Sans Merci - Hate was just selected by Swedish International Film Festival via FilmFreeway.com!

Today I'm listening to Britney Spears "Work Bitch" on repeat.... I gotta get this stuff done and I don't wanna!

A while ago I found deadly Hemlock in the yard. But then a few days later I found out the lovely flowering shrubs out front are Oleander, another strong poison. Today I found out the plants growing around my little orange tree are Nightshade. Is the universe trying to tell me something?

I hate doing this for myself, but here we are. gofund.me/50fad43e

This is Iggy. She’s 22 this year. Still insisting on sitting on the middle of whatever you’re doing.

It never rains but it pours. My little brother went in for emergency surgery today. He's going to be in the hospital recovering for a while and is worried he'll be losing his job and will lose his house because he can't pay the mortgage. Please share, or donate, or share more. gofund.me/44a8a958

And just starting it's festival run. :D Three pretty fun projects in my opinion.

Nowhere near done with it's festival run. :D

Just about done with it's festival run!

We made it! Now she can get the surgery she needs! Thank you so so much Bluesky peeps!

My daughter, Seanna Ladd, has a tumor on her face that bleeds constantly. Her cost will be $5,000 to get it removed. Please if you can, donate, share and spread the word! www.gofundme.com/f/help-a-doc...

A rare moment when Pluto and Yoghurt aren’t arguing.

And secondary thoughts, which one is Sauron and which Saruman? Who is Grima Wormtongue in our new administration?

So, now that Sauron has taken power, my question is..... Who of us are the ELVES, using our magic and wisdom to combat him, and DWARVES using technology and strength. HUMANS, using force of arms, and who are HOBBITS, helping the rest of us remember why the fight is worth it?

Working on screenplay stuff today. After the broken wrist it's nice to be able to type again. It's challenging because my fingers are stiff, but I'm so relieved.

My Christmas gift to myself. Hand carved, the Moose sign is changeable. Some options were “fuck off” and “get off my lawn”.

A little something fun. :)

Dog park in a rainstorm. Positives, it’s not busy. Negatives….

5am at the ER to have my cast removed. Very busy for 5am…. “It’s Christmas”. The exhausted ER doctor says, as if that explains everything.

And what happens when you’re still awake at 2 am.

What happens when you wake up at 6AM

Woo Hoo! Looks like my horror feature Blood Corral is an award winner in Australia! filmfreeway.com/HiddenUniver...

It occurs to me that Drumpf and his oligarchs are trying to turn us into Cyberpunk2077. So, in cyberpunk America would you be a nomad, streetkid or corpo? Me, life has forced me to be a nomad.
