I was just thinking the other day that speaking out thoughts could be an interesting way to draft. I'm not much for dictation myself, but I think I'll give it a try with my students.

Very good practices.

I would add one thing you could consider, depending on the content: after the initial brain-dump and subsequent creation of text from that, you could ask an LLM to help organize your thoughts, or even ask for a summary of the main ideas you have there. It's possible that you can uncover something you didn't even think was there in this way. Once I get this list, I might create an outline on this basis by using an LLM, but I rarely end up following the prescribed path.
