  • Double Dragons

    During Labor Day weekend of 2010, I was in a hit-and-run car accident, which resulted in the loss of fingers as well as the use of my left hand. I began to type with one hand but discovered that it was extremely slow; so my son suggested that I get a Dragon. The idea of a small, cute Dragon who only...


  • Been Dragon for years!

    I wrote my first book on Dragon and without it, I never would have finished that project. Best support I could get!


  • Contest

    I couldn't even spell Dragon before I had Dragon. Not that I'm dumb or maybe I'd better think about that. I just cannot spell, cannot type and you know it's bad when you have to ask your fourth-grade grandson how to spell common everyday words. (Just embarrassing and frustrating) my occupation...


  • Injured Firefighter Regains Independence

    I am a firefighter who was injured in the line of duty 21 years ago. I fell during a rescue call fracturing my neck leaving me paralyzed from the neck down.

After seven years of cabin fever, I talked with somebody from vocational rehabilitation...

I barely had time to turn on the computer once I got home so I could dictate my report for the council meeting. I had...


  • Dragon NaturallySpeaking

    Over the past year and half I have been using Dragon Naturally Speaking in order to dictate many of my essays along with working on many of my home and school projects. Myself I'm a 51-year-old student who has also an eight-year-old daughter along with being the grandfather of three. Due to my arthritis...


  • Using Dragon to Create tests and class handouts

    I create the quizzes and tests for the Animal Control Officers Academy of MA. I also own a dog training/boarding/daycare facility and I love the time that Dragon saves me! The old process for creating quizzes/tests for the academy was to flip through the manual, mark the pages and chapters, go to the...
