5 Ways to Use Google Docs as a Freelancer
A convenient tech tool for any writer
Google Docs rocks for freelancers, and I don’t know where I’d be without this FREE program. I first referenced its usefulness in my previous post The Best Tech Tools for the Freelancing Mama, and there, reader (Sandra Ebejer), commented that she wanted to hear more, so here I am.
Google Docs is a go-to program for a variety of reasons. Here are 5 of them:
1. Voice Typing
That’s right, Voice Typing. When you’re in your Google Doc, scroll on over to “Tools” and click on “Voice Typing” in the drop-down menu.
This tech tool not only improves my speed, but saves me when I’m cooking, holding a toddler, AND meeting a deadline.
How it works:
Speak your thoughts and watch as text fills your Google Doc. EASY. PEASY.
Sure, the grammar’s not perfect, but that’s why I use this next handy Google Doc extension.
2. The Grammarly Extension
Grammarly, which I mentioned in my other post — 4 Alternatives to Grammarly that Toast the Typos, features a downloadable Chrome extension that works with Google Docs.
