Yes, dictation definitely changes my writing style! I actually do talk to myself and sound out my plots more when I’m dictating rather than typing or writing by hand. It’s very freeing!

Another thing is that it’s a lot easier for me to dredge up unique descriptive words when I’m typing or handwriting than when I’m talking. but it’s not necessarily a bad thing that it’s hard for me to access these words when I dictate. I tend to get overly wordy and over-edited nowadays when I type.
