I recently wrote a book where two characters discuss the possibility of getting an abortion, though ultimately they decide not to go through with it. I will never let my parents read it. They will flip out. I was raised as a “good Christian girl.” I still am a Christian, albeit a fairly liberal one. But I can’t write a book where the adult characters drink, smoke, and have s**, and then suddenly pretend that abortion doesn’t exist when an unplanned pregnancy happens. That’s just ludicrous.
