This is the Moth Radio Hour.
I'm Chloe Salmon, one of the directors at The Moth.
I've always loved mystery stories.
The clues, the deductions, the big reveals.
And I've always secretly dreamed of being a detective.
When I was seven,
my dad came home from work one day with a book called The Magic Storybook that he had made out of a manila folder and computer paper.
All of the pages inside were blank.
My dad said that the book was magic and that only he could read the stories,
which he would do for me and my little brother when we asked.
But the mystery of the book consumed me.
