Powers of Persuasion - The Moth StorySLAM September 9, 2008

You know you wanna.

You know he wants to, she wants to, they want to….

Oh, the powers of persuasion. How we can convince or be convinced, to do something out of realm, out of comfort zone, perhaps out of MIND – all in the name of…what? Love? Hate? Power? Revenge? Desperation? For a job, a lover, cash, a crown, a car? What’s the mission, the game, the prize in your saga of supreme influence?

We know you’ve been talked into something or are especially cunning in your own way – be it seductive and come-hither or all-out balls to the wall. So put YOUR balls to the wall, come hither to the East Village, and DO TELL. Simply prepare a five-minute tale of persuasion, drop your name in the hat, and see if you’re one of the lucky 10 chosen to share. Your mission – should you choose to accept it – is to persuade us that, on this night, your story should deem you the SLAM champion.
