He's Cory Doctorow -- the Mary Sue characters in his fiction have massively over-inflated egos, are mostly worthless to others, are extremely paranoid and delusional, and tend to dick over everyone close to them.
In one of his short stories he has his wife and child die (who were somewhat fleshed out), and doesn't seem to care a bit.
- idlewords 17y agoI was thinking about this as I read the article - having even just a portion of Doctorow's literary output be write-only is a feature, not a bug.
