Is there somewhere on this site to explain to me how the Magnum Steno Club works? I'm interested in knowing what time of the day the dictation is given, how long is dictation given, information about the videos I've heard about. I've e-mailed Magnum Steno but haven't received a response. I e-mailed them again this morning.
Hi, Kar, you are at the Magnum Steno Fan Club on CSR Nation. Welcome! This is where fans of Magnum Steno Club come to chat and share their experience and get help. To get to the dictation, you need to go to the link at the bottom of this post, and if you haven't already registered, register and pay the fee. Once you have done that, then you should go to the "Archive" section, click on "Instructional" and watch "Mark Speed Method" videos 1-4. Following watching the instructional videos, which I highly recommend, then you can click on the daily speed video or go into archives for other daily speed videos.
Kar, if you go to magnumsteno.com, you can get a free week of Magnum Steno Club to see if you want to sign up for it. The videos are archived so that you can access them anytime. The dictations are about 10 minutes each. By now there are hundreds of hours of dictation available. There are dictations on brief building, speed building (Q&A and lit), and instructional videos on how to get the most out of your practicing.
I took Mark's seminar earlier this year and practiced every day during my free week. Since I'm a bit of a cheapskate, I figured I would just dictate my own dictation. Of course, I never did. Yesterday I signed up for the club.
