I'm not sure what is appropriate to say here. Is this just a story or reality being communicated. I went to a catholic grade school and high school, and I was an alter boy. I was never abused. However, my feeling is that if they let one priest to do such things, it is unforgivable. The worst of all humans is a child molester. Many things can be forgiven, but not that.

Technically, the work is sound. Thank you for sharing.

I fully agree with your sentiments. I abhor violence and sexual abuse. Children are so innocent and it's dreadful that perverts such as in your story abuse that pure innocence. I often wish that they could have a dose of their own treatment which hopefully would teach them a lesson, but this can never happen.

A well written short story with a lot of imagination. Characters and dialogue realistic and without any clutter. No editing necessary that I could find.

Have a great day, hugs Mia

This very dark story was well written though hard to read it was so real. The subject matter was difficult to deal with, though well done, but occasionally for me the flow was interrupted by side comments of the writer that slowed things down. May just be me.

    I am a novice writer, trying to get to good, and I know revisions help. I am re-writing everything I have written, I hope it gets better. Thanks.

    You are so welcome. For me here is the key: listen to everyone and take what is true for you from their comments! Can't fail then! Appreciate your attitude. Karen

This is well written. Once I started to read it would not let me go. This reader found a bond with this victim and joined the hunt for an opportunity to not only end a life but find a satisfying revenge.

Hi,

I find the descriptions of things on your story very wonderful. The psychedelic nature of the story is wonderfully brought out, where the reader has trouble remembering whether a dream's going on or not. However I feel it's lacking in plot.

Why did the narrator not kill Father Comstock when the lady left to call 911? What happened to the narrator's studying virology? Why did the coach say he hadn't run the course? What happened to the coach? You have created quite a few characters, but you haven't developed any of them enough. You just leave them halfway.

As a final note, I loved the line the narrator gives Father Comstock when the meet again. That, according to me, was perfect, and the clear highlight of the novel.

Cheers and Happy Writing!
Shashwat

Very disturbing story but unfortunately also very true and it happens in every church there is and it happens in homes as well. I hope that didn't really happen to you and that it was just a dream. It makes me sick to think about. The feelings are very real but we need to let GOD take revenge. Or we can take revenge ourselves and pay the price by going to jail or we can live above peoples trashy standards for us. Excellent message. Good Job!

very nice story, it brought out various emotions and saddened truth but also the ending had me wondering about the main character's life...would it ever be the same or just always driven on finding the error and deception in individuals. so although that abuse happened to him has one to see the abuse n tone it does to the bigger picture...this young man's life.
