Storyworth

“I worked as a story director for The Moth for nearly a decade, yet getting stories out of my boomer parents is STILL like pulling teeth! If your parents are anything like mine, they might resist answering too many personal questions in the moment. Gifting my parents this subscription of personal story prompts (and editing the questions myself) turned into a year-long ritual for them where they discussed each weekly prompt over dinner. In the end, you both get a book filled with stories and details that would otherwise be forgotten.”
