All I do is listen for verbal hiccups and use the notes feature to note the page and significant words before the item. I make a note and when I have enough that I can't stand it, I go, sit down in front of the computer and look for what the notes I've made suggest. Keep in mind that I don't do this until I've made my usual checks used rank spelling and done any other spellchecking I intend doing. It is absolutely the last step, done when I can expect to Mostly listen to the book. Hope this helps. Bear in mind that it's only what I do. Many other people have done this much longer and done many more books than I have. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Julia Kulak" <julia.kulak@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <bksvol-discuss@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Tuesday, August 12, 2008 12:02 AM Subject: [bksvol-discuss] Re: Proof reading with Victor Stream > Can you write with the victor streem?
