Any modern day writer that applies voice recognition software can pump our novels like there is no tomorrow. Let me tell you this is a known fact. Indeed, this is a major time saver and efficiency leap, which can increase the ability to write by two-thirds. In other words rather than a maximum of 8,000 words today in a 12 hour sitting, 24,000 words; how do you suppose I came about these figures?
Over the last couple of years, I've used speech recognition about 15-20% of the time. Why do not I use it all the time? Well, if you are using voice recognition you must fully devote yourself to your writing, you cannot listen to music, watch TV, listen to an audio book, talk with friends or even use the phone without turning it off and on all the time. Voice recognition is great but it needs your dedicated time and silence from all other noises.
