#WritersCoffeeClub 30: How much would writing by another means (by hand, digitally, audio transcription) change your prose?
Significantly!
I started out writing on a manual typewriter, then an electric one, before graduating to a word processor. Each change lowered the barrier to composition, at word/sentence level then structural level.
Audio transcription is impossible for prose fiction—it's entirely incompatible with the way I compose text, and suffers from a highly restricted vocabulary.

In principle, audio #transcription includes #dictating to a person, and offers the real intelligence feature of watching the #human react.
Jubal Harshaw is running through my mind.
Including "oh I finished that one boss and sent it off"
