Your format is exactly the way that I've done similar things, except for
putting another double quote after the abc (I assume that was just a typo
anyway).  And make sure to use semicolons at the end of your statements
inside the if statement.  But otherwise, I think you one way to do it
already.

if ($answer eq "N" or $answer eq "NO") {
        &fatal_error("Error message.");
}
