Rubber duck dictation captures a blog-post idea by narrating it aloud while voice-transcription software turns the explanation into draft text. It works especially well for people who explain ideas clearly in conversation and produces a friendly, conversational starting point. section 4.4.1
Use the technique without expecting the transcript to be finished prose:
- Dust off a rubber duck, enable voice transcription, and narrate the blog-post idea to it. section 4.4.1
- Prefer traditional typing if speaking feels unnatural or verbal explanation is not a strength. section 4.4.1
- Create a fresh high-level outline and reorder transcript fragments when the captured draft lacks logical flow. section 4.4.1
From explanation to draft
Explain the post aloud to a rubber duck as though debugging a problem. Keep the transcription, then reorganize its fragments under a new high-level outline before revising. section 4.4.1
