My novel is set in the late 90's when my protagonist loses her memory due to epilepsy. Remind her something about the nineties. Anything 😉.

Which book would you prefer to read: a unique story that's well written, or a common story that is superbly written? 🤔

Do people with #epilepsy lose consciousness during a seizure? Not necessarily. Many of us do, while others experience FOCAL AWARE seizures. They remain fully conscious and alert while the seizure alters the sensations they experience. #EpilepsyAwareness

As someone living with epilepsy, I'd never heard of SUDEP until years after I was diagnosed. It's important to know. Share the knowledge.
Today is SUDEP Action Day. We honor those lost and raise awareness to help prevent future tragedies. Let’s talk about SUDEP. Every story matters. ow.ly/q1CJ50ZYAIP
I want people to know that epilepsy does NOT define you. AT ALL. #epilepsyawareness #WritingCommunity
Tomorrow kicks off #InvisibleDisabilitiesWeek to help bring global education, support, and awareness to family, friends, and coworkers regarding unseen illnesses, pain, and disabilities. -- What would you like people to know about #epilepsy? #EpilepsyAwareness
ALT The "Invisible reality of epilepsy" - Random falls, bed wetting (nocturnal seizures), blood on the pillow, sudden confusion and memory gaps, extreme fatigue and exhaustion, unexplained fear and panic.

Cognitive training for #epilepsy doesn't have to be intense. Reading, puzzles, traveling a new street, or listening to music can stimulate neural pathways without causing unnecessary fatigue or stress. -- How are you going to train on #TrainYourBrainDay? #EpilepsyAwareness

#Epilepsy affects an estimated 65 MILLION people worldwide, crossing every border, culture, and continent. Bridging the global treatment gap demands international cooperation, shared medical advances, and worldwide solidarity. #EpilepsyAwareness

As a new writer, it is so important to get involved with the writing community. I highly recommend joining workshops like the FLORIDA WRITING DAY WORKSHOP. I'm hooked 👍📚 #FLORIDAAWW #WritingCommunity #amwriting #amquerying

As a writer, what do you now pay attention to that you otherwise wouldn't have? 🤔
