Hi Heather, I very much enjoyed your paper as it resonated with much that I have undertaken during recent times. In addition, since 2000, I have fulfilled an extensive (and ongoing) programme of talks to community organisations in an attempt to create a greater public awareness about stuttering. My presentation is of one hour’s duration, during which I speak about ALL aspects of my lifetime of stuttering. Revealing (what were previously) my “darkest secrets” has had a hugely desensitizing effect. This policy of greater openness has proved invaluable in enabling me to come to terms with my communication issues. It was an important piece in this jigsaw puzzle that we have come to know as stuttering. Thank you for sharing. Kindest regards Alan.
