Run it through VoiceOver

The idea of running it through VoiceOver makes me cringe in embarrassment. 😬 For some reason hearing my own writing read out loud is super uncomfortable to me. This does really sound like an effective way to evaluate the flow and pace of a post, though so I may just have to deal with it and try it out. Thanks for the advice!

Oh... If that makes you uncomfortable maybe you could record yourself reading it out loud and then listen to that 😅

Thanks for sharing your process. Voice over is definitely a plus on Mac, the voices are also not too robotic.

This is awesome! Just starting out blogging, I wonder if I'm "doing it right". I have been using Hemingway, so I guess that's a good start.

Thanks for this!

You got it! Hemingway is awsome! My stuff is so rambly until I run it through!
