Image description: A single panel comic. The caption says, "Halloween is when our costumes are taken off." In the background, a row of people in business suits check their watches, and start unfastening their neckties and buttons. In the foreground, a businessperson removes their blazer, transforming into a tiger with an optimistic smile. Description ends.






Note from 2005: When offered a chance to wear a costume, some people dress as their opposite. Some dress as what they wish they were. And some go as themselves…

That is a good idea.

I wonder if voice recording programs have a 30 day trial or somethign?

30 day trial would certainly be plenty, wouldn't it?

I've used http://audacity.sourceforge.net/ for recording and editing sound on my computer. It's freeware, so it's not just a 30 day trial, and it has some neat special effects it can do... however, it can be buggy about saving files! That'd be a scare if you were dictating a novel onto it...

You might want to experiment with several shareware sound-recording programs and stick with whichever one is the most reliable when it comes to saving. Save recordings to multiple different files, not just to one file... that way if you accidentally lose one chunk of the book, you still have all the other parts of the novel.
