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.

The -mp, -mble, and -mple solution...

This technique Steno Wizard got from the Philadelphia Clinic and it has worked wonders! 

Initially, Steno Wizard was taught to two-stroke that -mp ending.  Two strokes!  You have got to be kidding!  We don't even want to think about the mble and mple. 

Anyway, spied this out of the Philly Clinic, and another reporter told me her tweak, and life has been a little less complicated.

Write the -mp ending with the -FRP keys. 

Write the -mble ending with the -FRBL keys.

Write the -mple ending with the -FRPL keys.   Simple (SEUFRPL)! 

Now words like crumble and tumble are so easy to write! 

Thimble, rumble, simple, ample, example, sample, fumble -- suddenly the steno world is full of one-stroke words!   INSTANT SPEED!!

Want to write the word simply in one stroke?  Easy.  Add the asterisk key.  S*EUFRPL.

Enjoy!
