Welcome to the Steno Wizard's Realtime Journey!






Remember when life was simple and all you had to do was make a selection on what your steno really meant? Those days are long gone.





Reporters must get themselves into top realtime form to compete in today's job market. This is my contribution toward ALL of us reaching the realtime goal.



My Steno Wizardry concept is based on the idea that writing realtime actually doesn't require magic -- just hard work, determination, and a little bit of FUN imagination.



My hope is my sharing of the ideas I've incorporated into my realtime journey will assist you in yours.

View and way suffixes

Steno Wizard has thought of a new suffix to input into the ultimate realtime reporter's dictionary -- view. Think about how many words (usually proper nouns) end with the suffix view. There's Hillview, Lakeview, Riverview, Bayview, Broadview, Fairview, Clearview, on and on.

Wouldn't it be nice to be able to come up with a suffix solution that can be defined to cap the word it hooks up to (or not)?

Steno Wizard's software (brief - SWAER) has this ability.

Writing the word with the -FPLT bank included in the stroke can be defined as whatever the software's cap previous stroke command is with view. The steno for such an accomplishment is SRAOUFPLT, and then if one were to use the -RBGS instead, it can be defined without the cap previous stroke command.

This technique also be used for the suffix way. Think about it. Broadway, fairway, driveway, etc.
