It's a story about fear, perseverance, and duty.On this week’s #MothRadioHour, @ZetaRuizperilla must save a life to save her own.https://t.co/Ji4BTQzPl4 pic.twitter.com/DVB26m0QgC— The Moth (@TheMoth) September 1, 2017
A little background: The Moth is an organization that curates and produces personal tales and memories in the form of live short stories. Everything you hear occurred and is truthful — that's a big part of the allure. If you have a story, you can submit a short version, and if you're chosen, they work with you to expand and refine it before inviting you on the road to tell it live in front of a paying audience.
This is one of those stories. Visit here to learn more about The Moth.
