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.

  1. Hi, I love the philly thought process. At least conceptually it flows for me. Not too sure about the finger flow yet : )I did look up some info and I've read the "g" tuck and the "td" ending originally came from that theory. But can't find any old theory books or anything more solid than that online. Do you have any idea where one could get more info? Really appreciate what you're sharing.
