In my latest short story, The Paradise Alternative, the central
character is the son of a Christian Clergy. The central character is AJ,
short for Alfred Jerome. His father is a preacher and a pastor of a local
congregation. Because the story can definitely have a part 2, I continually think about
the character's development. A thought came to me. Are there similarities
in the experiences of these children across religions?
If you are the child of a person who leads, teaches, or holds a
key position, I would like you to share your experiences. Did you feel the same or different from others? How did adults react to you? Or any other thing you believe relevant.
