Review :
The Moth connects us because we all have stories. What you need to do, most of all, is feel like yourself. Once you do that, the words will come. There are many reasons I feel compelled to tell stories. Without stories, the past starts to mush together. And that makes me very anxious. Creating stories is a way for me to make sense of life. The Moth will help you tell great stories. It's because of The Moth that I learned the dynamic range of storytelling. The Moth changed my brain in the best possible way. Working with their amazing directors, I learned how to share my story in an authentic and powerful way that I now use almost every day as a teacher, author, and speaker. Now, that's some brain-changing magic! From toasts to eulogies, from job interviews to social events, this book will help you with ideas, structure, delivery and more. True to its title, How to Tell a Story is a wonderfully practical and thoughtful guide to turning your own experiences and epiphanies into engaging tales. The book is very Moth-centric - 'Moth stories are true and told out loud, in the first person' - but there's also advice about telling stories during job interviews, business presentations and toasts. Inspiring . . . This book . . . provides everything readers need to share their own personal narratives.
