You could call the number and sign in to a personal account which knew all your preferences.Then select works from project gutenberg and other e-text archives and they would be read to you. Better yet the whole thing is free and aspiring writers could submit their stories. I have set up something like this already and can be accessed by:

dialing: 1800-555-TELL wait till it says tellme menu and dial 1-39746
