My tor.com story draws a lot of flak in comments — Apparently I write with tired, politically correct tropes. Good thing I always believe the story belongs to the reader.

We’re on opposite sides politically so it didn’t bother me. Still a good piece. Interesting to see how others responded. I thought they went off the deep end on it though.

For what it’s worth, I enjoyed the story. Of course, there were some themes that keep popping up in your work again and again, but that’s the case for every writer out there.
