How to Dictate Your Writing Like It's...: The Productive Author's Guide to Speech Recognition
Contenuto dell'eBook:

HOW TO DICTATE YOUR WRITING LIKE IT’S…2015 is the book I wish I’d had when I started adopting this life-changing skill.

"In summary, I’ll give you an overview of available software and hardware for dictation. I also provide drills and a four-week plan for becoming more comfortable with dictation. I go over major commands users of Dragon (by Nuance.com) 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.

More specifically, you get:
  • A four-week (24 days), three-stage system for mastering dictation skills while finishing 55,000 words in your work in progress, in about two hours per day! (estimated, each person's learning speed of course varies)
  • 26 dictation drills to mix and match according to what works best for you in three areas: General Commands, Verbal Storytelling, and Creative Flow
  • Prompted and unprompted dictation passages from classic literature (the works of Bram Stoker, Charles Dickens, Jane Austen, James Joyce, Lewis Carroll, and others)
  • An overview of voice assistant, speech recognition, and transcription software options for Mac, Windows, Windows Phone, iOS, Android, and BlackBerry, including dozens of mobile apps
  • An overview and comparison tables of transcription hardware accessories including digital recorders and external microphones or headsets
  • An overview of hiring and working with a human transcriptionist
  • An overview and links to details of dictation features within note-taking apps like Evernote, Microsoft OneNote, and Google Keep
  • Tips for dictating web searches, email, word processed documents, spreadsheets, slide shows, notes, social media updates, and more
  • Links to where you can find more in-depth guides and resources
  • A stray pep talk or two (while learning dictation is absolutely worth it, you’ll need them!)
