Featuring Steven Lewis, Andi Rosenthal, and Kathryn Mayer. Do you remember your first car? How about your worst car? What about your road test or that first big road trip you made on your own? The stories we're presenting in today's show were recorded in the Ossie Davis Theater in New Rochelle, New York at a Read650 live event called THE CAR.

Writers Read™ is a literary forum promoting established and emerging writers through curated live and digital performances celebrating the spoken word. It’s a high-quality platform for true personal stories—two pages and 650 words long, read aloud by the writer before an audience. Read650 places a strong emphasis on the craft of writing—word choices, sentence structures, the arc of the narrative. Our submission-based events are developed around broad themes that invite a wide range of expression. An editorial committee curates and sequences the content of each show and, where necessary, our editors collaborate with writers to further refine their work.
