Hi Morgan; Getting the opportunity to make this film made me confront my stuttering and bring it out in the open. I had to do a lot of talking and convincing to get funders to put up the money to make the film. Stuttering is a subject which most people know little. I wanted to do justice to this very peculiar condition. From doing a lot of reading and interviewing many stutterers, SLPs and researchers I was able to design a therapy that helped me. Many things I tried that worked for others didn't work for me and vice versa. By being patient and persistent I eventually found techniques that best suited my way of stuttering, addressed my past stuttering traumas and best utilized the resources that I have wtihin me. All the best.
