Writing by Dictation Instead of Typing
Press Space for next Tweet
every single article i've written with 1M+ views wasn't actually written by me... i just used my phone to dictate it because the truth is... your brain doesn't think in text it never did, it thinks in connections, in patterns, in half-formed ideas that make perfect sense until you try to type them out and the moment your fingers hit a keyboard, you stop thinking and start performing because every sentence gets filtered through "does this sound good?" so i started using Wispr Flow to dictate all my first drafts... here's what my process looks like now: > i go for a walk, open the app on my phone > talk through the entire article like i'm explaining it to someone who asked a great question > Wispr Flow captures it all in real time, cleans out the filler words, formats it into actual paragraphs > 15 minutes later i have a draft on my phone that reads like something i'd publish, not a messy transcript i need to spend an hour cleaning up then i work on the the structure, ask claude for refinements, rewrite some parts and publish... that's a full article, under an hour when you speak, you don't overthink that directness hits different because readers can feel it... there's a natural rhythm in spoken thought that you cannot recreate by typing carefully, no matter how good you are been running this system on desktop and iphone for months, Wispr Flow just launched on android too, so it works on every device now if you create content and you still spend more time staring at a blank page than actually producing... speak your next article, your best writing was never in your fingers, it was always in your voice
