Is everything you are writing political? (Does everything you write have satire in it?)
The other day when outlining a blog post for my Occult Garden Parties blog, a post about why I don't do public speaking, I made a list of what political hot-button issues were in each of my currently planned Icarus universe stories. (And no, at the time I am writing this blog post, the other one has not been finished yet--I am a slow writer prone to migraines.) The Homer Milton Dante stories Astronauts and Snakeheads (original working title-- Mercury Forty-Two ): PTSD, propaganda, civil defense, immigration (merit-based), war crimes. Southern Fried Android : Slavery, AIs, and "human" trafficking. Now with an improved working title and tagline. The Wolfgang Katz stories Axe Murderer of Titan : Reality television, social media, and mental health issues. Hanging Gardens of Jupiter : Economic safety net and apocalypse survival issues. Red Hand : Political/military doomsday policies. The God-King Wolfgang Katz : Political and national mythology. Stories
