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.

“Phillip Stearns is an artist who commissions blankets and tapestries ”

Wait, he’s an artist who commissions things? Isn’t the person commissioned usually the artist? And the art is based on corrupted images? It sounds like he’s emailing jpegs to the actual artist/artisan the way it’s written. Like, if I point at the landscape and tell a painter to paint it, am I the artist?

Crafting pedant, here, just pointing out that the fabric in the larger pic is knit, not woven.
