Library members read from their own short stories, novels, poetry, criticism, memoir, and plays. Refreshments and wine will be served.

Reading slots are currently full with a waitlist. Readers must be current Library members. To register to read, you must contact Carolyn Waters at cwaters@nysoclib.org or 212.288.6900 x244.

Selections are limited to five minutes or less and must be material in progress or newly published work.

The Writing Life events in 2016 are generously underwritten by Jenny Lawrence.
