Babies’ Breath: Stories of the Sad, the Sick, the Evil

Babies’ Breath Stories of The Sad, The Sick, The Evil and How They Were Born is a collection of twenty-four contemporary short stories. For readers who have wondered, How does a story come to be written, the author, Kathy L. Coogan begins each story with the trigger that inspired it. Her fictional characters fight circumstance, bad choices, and luck-of-the-draw. All are in the midst of sad, sick or evil events, which impact their lives: loss, addiction, abandonment, dishonesty, dread and loneliness. They attempt to answer the universal questions - What if? and If Only…? For some, there is relief from the dark. As in real life, others continue to spin out of control.
