Howdy. I did one of the November dashes ... it helped to get my essay drafted. I found that my writing was a bit too lack and devoted a lot of time scratching for the "diamonds in the dustheap" (V. Woolf).

My 10 minute dialogue is chugging along. Here are the tools I am using. Criteria is free or already owned and works with limited needs to prep my script. Meaning, some of the AI readers required a specific prompt format like: (Voice: Revu).

For voice recording ideas and initial transcript: Apple iOS Voice Memo.

For the script: Highland. It's free and sets up the page in screenscript format.

For the multiple-speaker Text to Speech: Google AI Studio. This tool is nothing short of dazzling. Not happy with one of the voices, so will re-record after I get a table read from my film society.

For editing the audio dialogue: Audacity. Amazing free and open sourced editing tool.

For timing the slides over the audio track: Powerpoint. Had begun on Google Slides, but it can't designate a specific duration to each slide, a crucial part. Downloaded as .pptx and working through the script now.

Goal: Get a rough version done by tomorrow.
