Are you going to publish the book?
I don't know. Right now I am interested in the process of creating a book. There are a number of skill required for creating a book that I find fascinating. As with many of the skills I've acquired, whether I use them directly or not, I am interested in expanding my understanding of how things work. I got turned onto the process of writing a book as a subset of the items discussed in the Worldcraft Club Podcast.
Techniques I'm using
After watching and listening to @SethRingWrites I decided to try my hand at doing some writing. At the very least it is a chance to add one more skill to my backpack. Whether I end up publishing 20 books or never publishing anything, I feel like it will help to develop my creative processes. One thing that I noticed Seth Ring does, is he uses transcription for his writing.
"Writing" using Transcription
These are the high level steps that @SethRingWrites mentioned in a recent stream.
Record with Audacity
Clean it to eliminate all of the dead space
Save as mp3
Upload to Google Drive folder (Triggers Script)
Script does the transcription
Previously he had also mentioned using the Whisper AI (from OpenAI) to do the transcription.
There are a lot of ways this could be done. Using the cloud, and cloud based API's, or, it can also be done locally. A lot of the time when you use Cloud Based API's, you end up running into storage limits, and API costs. I think integrating cloud services for storing the Audio Files, and resulting documents (hopefully presented in a usable manner that are easily editable), but having the processing done locally (which as of writing this is still free) is a good balance. I use both Windows and Mac computers, but for automation and scripting I tend to start with Mac, because the command line on Mac is nearly the same as a Linux command line (I think it's maybe based on BSD?).
So, a while ago I had setup the Whisper AI and played around with it. These are the steps, as far as I can piece together. Perhaps latter I'll do a clean install and brush up my steps.
