Dictation for the win!

I’ve been experimenting with dictation off and on. The process of dictation + cleanup is still not faster for me than actual typing. But I have much lower energy right now due to being pregnant, so it’s been great to lie on the couch with my eyes closed and dictate into my phone, then spend a little bit more time editing, instead of trying to type the whole thing.

Currently, I dictate into my phone’s Scrivener app, then let Dropbox sync between my devices and edit on my computer. As I get used to dictation, I’m hoping it will come faster. Because I can see this being a lifesaver later on too, allowing me to hold or nurse a baby while dictating.
