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.

Well I’ll put in a plug for nifnaks, previously mentioned on BB, Nifer makes a wonderful noodly FSM ornament (and tree topper). Her felted wool Cthulu is superior to the one above, far more menacing imo.
