“Finn realized that the Key must be linking into some circuitry in the tree itself, and for a moment a blur of vision caught him off guard, a sense that the whole of Incarceron was a great creature in whose entrails of wire and bone they crept.
He blinked.”
-p. 177 of Catherine Fisher’s Incarceron
It’s time to announce the winner of my giveaway for a SIGNED copy of Boneshaker, the Nebula-nominated zombie/alternate history novel by Cherie Priest. And, because I just feel like it, a second winner, who’ll get their (not signed) copy via The Book Depository. I love giving away books!
The winner of the SIGNED copy is:
Ryan G. of Wordsmithonia!
Who answered the question “What event will trigger the apocalypse?” with, “The Sun will start to die (like every star eventually does) causing gravitational shifts throughout the galaxy, sending planets off their axis, and causing the moon to crash into the Earth.”
The second winner (of the not signed copy) is:
Dani. of YA All The Way: An Epic Journey Through the World of YA!
Who answered the same question with, “Is there really any need to debate? The only trigger for the apocalypse is going to be ZOMBIES!!!! *I am already preparing as we speak; stored up supplies, and practicing my decapitation skills* :D”
Congrats, winners! Thank you to all who entered – your apocalypse theories were amazing. And hilarious. And maybe a couple of them were frightening. All as it should be, in other words. Look out for a new giveaway soon!
For Valentine’s Day he ordered a dozen cupcakes for his girlfriend and his girlfriend’s roommates.
Gorgeous cupcakes by an artiste, I might add.
With our names personalized, and little bumblebees.
And they were mint chocolate with a whole Peppermint Patty INSIDE. Each. Cupcake. Delicious.
Needless to say, he wins. She wins. We all win!
Balance the workload in your relationship. No one person should be responsible for killing all the zombies.
Put the small stuff into perspective. It's better to be wrong and alive than right but eating brains.
Talk out your big decisions. Hear both opinions before you decide if you're going to flee the city or hole up with Campbell's Soup and CNN.
Share in your activities and interests. If you're going to kill zombies anyway, why not do it together?
Plan romantic getaways. Or just getaways.
Show physical affection. Nothing says 'I love you' like bearing the entirety of your spouse's body weight.
Or read the first chapter of Married with Zombies here.
