I like to have my computer read my chapters to me. Something about that weird computer-y voice softens my editing mistakes. ;)

I've never had my computer do that.

I do, however, read stuff aloud to myself!

That helps too! I have a mac, so I have text edit, and that's where I do my writing. If you click up on the top there's a way for it to read it too you. It's really funny when it mispronounces names.

I am learning MS Office 2010, and I haven't found a feature for that yet. I think I'll look! But not now--the day is fragmented.
