Guest Author David Allen: Getting Started With Dictation

By David Allen, @Wizardgold

Last week, commenter Misty asked a question about dictating a novel. Since I've never done this, I headed out to the web and found someone who could give her the information she sought. So please help me welcome David Allen to the blog, who graciously answered my call and agreed to do a guest post about the pros and cons of dictating your novel.

David writes for a number of websites including Mac20Q.com, NoStylus and DigitalBookMaestro and can be followed on Twitter using the name @Wizardgold. David was a member of the Girona writers group in Catalonia. When not writing for the web you will find him making videos for YouTube again with the username of Wizardgold.
