Vocie recording?

[farad]

This has come up a couple of times on Daybook (Van's had some really good comments about the same program that is mentioned in this article, Dragon Naturally Speaking - and, seriously, who can't get behind a program with Dragon in the title??).

Elizabeth Craig, however, suggests using using one of these programs as a writing tool, to get stories down, especially, as she suggests, when " The story doesn’t cooperate. Your schedule goes haywire with unexpected stuff popping up.  Kids come home sick from school.  There are activities all hours of the day and night." 

Her suggestions are good, especially her quote from Katie Ganshert about one of the other advantages of the recorder:

"The beautiful thing about this method is that it completely silences the dreaded internal editor.
There’s no back space. There’s no flashing cursor. There’s no blank page. There’s no critical little man sitting on your shoulder, reading each sentence while tutting and shaking his head.
There’s just a red record button."

What's not to love about it, especially if it transcribes? 

So - any writing today?  I am working on editing a few things which means not a lot of words but a lot of thinking . . .
