Come Down Softly is a short fiction chapbook that includes four self-contained yet interconnected stories. What's in the tales: an emotional connection as needed as it is elusive, primal gratification, looming dread, quiet desperation that turns loud, anonymous communications, an obsession, an addiction, an eternal return, random hostility, a patient source of warmth, soul love . . .
