Book Dictation for Beginners | Self-Publishing
Today I'm sharing some tips and tricks I've learned while dictating my books! I'm still a beginner but wanted to share what program I use and what I've learned along the way so far.

Vocal Warm-Ups on Youtube (I appreciate my theatre years teaching me how important it is to warm-up even if you're not singing!):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=73mGajv-6pE
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7eDcHZZn7hU
Tips: search 'vocal warm-ups for public speaking' on youtube and find a video you like! I know sometimes it feels weird doing this, but it really helps you in the long run! Remember hydration is key when speaking a lot so I'll just remind you to drink that water!
Books I mentioned and have read about dictation:
Fool Proof Dictation (this one has exercises!): https://amzn.to/3koG4FK

Pen names: Lyra Parish & Kennedy Fox (we're an author duo!)
I've been in the indie scene since 2011. I published my first romance novel in 2014 (Weak for Him). Under Kennedy Fox, we've made USA Today 4 times since 2017. With Lyra Parish, I've made top 100 several times on Amazon. I unpublished my Lyra Parish backlist in 2020 with zero regrets. You can watch that video here: https://bit.ly/3k8P6pa
