Other readings - What you can do

If you want a reading of something that doesn't fit easily into the main reading categories then it should be in this 'Other' reading category. You can help someone else by reading their request out aloud in a location near you which they cannot easily visit. You can submit your own requests for readings anywhere in the world.

In the 'Other' category you can:

• browse the reading request listings and offer to read a request out aloud for someone;
• add your own reading request for a special location and / or particular time;
• search the member profiles to find a suitable reader who can reach your special location anywhere around the world and delivery your request in the right style; and
• use the private members message service to discuss and develop the performance style with the reader, or
• record your own reading (uses the Request form - select 'I want to read/perform/deliver this request myself').

You can search the reading requests to find one which relates to a specific topic or you can browse another reading category using the links in the right hand margin of this page.

You can also search the public archive of completed readings to:

• see what poems and literature other people have written and read out aloud; and
• see how other people have performed poetry and poetry readings.

Cinnaminta provides facilities for a multi-media recording (video, photos or sound) of the reading event to be shared, free, with the requester, the reader, their friends and family or, if appropriate, the whole world.

Perhaps rather than a reading you just need a recording of the sights and sounds of a special location or some specific item of interest? You can request multi-media recordings of this type at no cost through the sights and sounds category.

How will you 'Reach out and speak out from the internet'?
