Omar's friend Jennie made him this brilliant Pac-Man cake (with ghost cupcakes) for his birthday. Link (Thanks, Omar!)

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 sure hope you didn’t use any clean WATER in that recipe!

    This is more than a friend, this is someone you should consider marrying.

    Awww man, no power pellets! A time lapse of Pac-cake being eaten would mirror his animated death sequence.

  • Kit10inDublin

    WOW! Such attention to detail – I hope there’s real love involved and not just for making cakes.

    Very cool and brilliant. But isn’t it WRONG to eat them??? ;-)

  • Ohmz

    I have to say we felt very guilty eating the ghosts, someone suggested that we’d need to eat one of the power pellets before eating them.

    Also next time Jennie says she’ll be making little cherries to have on the board.

    The Time lapse is a good idea, maybe next time…
