Hi Jonas, Thank you for reading my article and responding in such a generous manner. It was kind of you to write in such a vein. My extensive vocabulary (fuelled by so many years of word substitution) is contributing greatly to the pleasure that I am now experiencing. I have intended to write a book (or books) for many years but I simply haven't had the time to put pen to paper (or should that be 'fingers to the keyboard'). :-) I hope to rectify the situation next year when I have promised myself that I will devote time to that project (or those projects). Meanwhile, you may wish to access some of my online articles about stuttering. They should provide a little bedtime reading.:-) Here are the links: (1) STUTTERING IS NOT JUST A SPEECH PROBLEM http://www.mnsu.edu/comdis/kuster/Infostuttering/badmington.pdf (2) STEP OUTSIDE: Why expanding comfort zones can improve our stuttering and lead to more fulfilling lives http://www.mnsu.edu/comdis/isad6/papers/badmington6.html (3) HOW I CHANGED MY STUTTERING MINDSET http://www.mnsu.edu/comdis/isad8/papers/badmington8.html (4) ACCUSTOMED AS I AM http://www.stammering.org/accustomedasIam.html (5) INCREASING PUBLIC AWARENESS http://www.stammering.org/increasingawareness.html (6) (a) Poem 1: CHANGING THE WORDS AROUND http://www.mnsu.edu/comdis/isad7/papers/badmington7/badmington17.html (6) (b) Poem 2: EVERYONE'S DIFFERENT http://www.mnsu.edu/comdis/isad7/papers/badmington7/badmington27.html (7) IT'S GOOD TO TALK ABOUT IT http://www.mnsu.edu/comdis/isad7/papers/bridgebuilders7/alan7.html (8) ACTING IS A WONDERFUL EXPERIENCE http://www.stammering.org/acting.html (9) WEDDING VOWS - For better or for worse http://www.mnsu.edu/comdis/isad5/papers/weddingvows.html  (10) TECHNOLOGY : A friend or foe of someone who stutters http://www.mnsu.edu/comdis/isad9/papers/badmington9.html  (11) TWO THINGS I WISH I’D KNOWN ABOUT STUTTERING WHEN I WAS YOUNGER. http://www.mnsu.edu/comdis/isad10/papers/messages10/badmington10.html  (12) MY COMMITMENT TO SPEAKING ABOUT STUTTERING IS OPENING SO MANY NEW DOORS http://www.stammering.org/newdoors.html  (13) HELPING TOMORROW’S THERAPISTS HELP PEOPLE WHO STAMMER http://www.stammering.org/helpingtherapists.html  Thank you, once again, for your valued contribution.
