Paintings inspired by spam subject-lines

Linzie Hunter paints illustrations that incorporate the subject lines of the spam she finds in her in-box. She captures the daffy mania of spam-subjects perfectly, too! Link (via Kottke)

I write books. My latest is a YA science fiction novel called Homeland (it's the sequel to Little Brother). More books: Rapture of the Nerds (a novel, with Charlie Stross); With a Little Help (short stories); and The Great Big Beautiful Tomorrow (novella and nonfic). I speak all over the place and I tweet and tumble, too.

I’m reminded of Ellen Forney’s “Lustlab” comics. Illustrated adaptations of the juicier personals in Seattle’s Stranger magazine. Check ‘em out:

There’s always Spamusement, which doesn’t really update anymore, but is still the greatest thing on three legs.
