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 hold your hand in mine, dear,
    I press it to my lips.
    I take a healthy bite
    From your dainty fingertips.

    My joy would be complete, dear,
    If you were only here,
    But still I keep your hand
    As a precious souvenir.

    The night you died I cut it off.
    I really don’t know why.
    For now each time I kiss it
    I get bloodstains on my tie.

    I’m sorry now I killed you,
    For our love was something fine,
    And till they come to get me
    I shall hold your hand in mine.

    –Tom Lehrer

    Well, like I’ve always said, if you want someone who will love you for your brains, date a zombie.

    I guess the “alive hand” really, really, really liked “zombie hand” enough to risk holding it. sure it helps that the hand was severed from the rest of it. still, it’s a zombie hand. oh to be in like with a hand that much.
