The Productive Author's Guide To Dictation: Speak Your Way to Higher (and Healthier!) Word Counts

THE PRODUCTIVE AUTHOR'S GUIDE TO DICTATION is the book I wish I'd had when I started adopting this skill for my creative fiction and non-fiction writing. In this book, I start by describing why I needed dictation, the benefits I've seen, and the obstacles I've had to overcome in adopting this skill...(and I will of course show you how I did so!) Spoiler: Dictation has helped me attain higher word counts, with less harm to my body from sitting around all the time, and more creativity! Next, I'll point you in the right direction for choosing dictation software and hardware for dictation and explain your easiest path to getting started.Finally, I'll suggest exploration drills in the form of a four-week plan for becoming more comfortable with dictation. As a college instructor for business and technology courses for over a decade, I know that everyone is different when it comes to assimilating a new skill, so my hope is to offer you several ways to overcome the learning curve associated with dictation. I go over major commands users of Dragon should focus on, both because it is the most popular dictation tool on the market and because it packs enough features to serve as a conceptual baseline for other programs you may decide on instead. Dictation has been an absolute game changer for my writing, and since writing is such a huge part of my life, it's been a life-changer. I hope you'll check it out and give it a try!!Looking for more detail? Check us out at TheProductiveAuthor.com and click on our Guide Series tab.
