KevinEvans:
The bad thing about voice to text, is that it generates errors...
The good thing about VtTxt, is that it requires an in depth edit....
We made it through about three quarters of the article, more editing tomorrow.
Regards,
Kevin

i use text to speak for other reasons but it has more uses than one :)

Not a damn thing written today... but I got my first 3 chapters/sections edited to reflect the corrections and issues that my Kind and Gentle Beta Proof Super Awesome Readers pointed out. So now I have a "master document" that's The Story So Far, and it's something I'm pretty happy with. Got a bunch of ideas, lines and other nuggets tagged into Scrivener so I don't forget them when I'm ready to sit down and start hammering. Plus, I made Shecky throw up in his mouth some with Pure Bad Writing (intentional, something one of my characters gets caught reading.)
So, I've made progress doing that annoying detail work that's for me harder than actually herding words around my screen.
So right now I'm looking back at what Word tells me is 67 pages, 21879 words. All of which spawned from a 300 letter character bio for an MMO.
This writing... it's like a sickness, isn't it?\
Ok, just ran this mess through Scrivener to compile it in Proper Manuscript format.. comes to 97 pages if it were happening in a book rather than a typical Word Doc. Wow. I had now idea how much I'd actually produced there.
KevinEvans:
Well the article is out for review, now on to the next thing, the story that goes with it.
Another case of editing, I have to tweak a few things, but it is ready too.
Regards,
Kevin
