Talking to the Mirror: A Stutterer's Journey

More about the book

Daily I still think about my speech, yet people would never know that I once stuttered so badly I couldn't even say my name. This book is part self-help guide and part memoir, written by a stutterer. Years ago, I promised myself that if I could ever reach a place of gratitude for stuttering, I would write a book and share what I have learned. Stuttering has been one of my greatest struggles and has profoundly influenced my personal development. This book offers a glimpse into the world of one stutterer and is intended to give hope to others. Speech is an essential part of everyday life. Stuttering is a speech impediment that is almost always painful. Not only does it make speaking difficult, but in some cases, impossible. There is a thin line between hopelessness that a stutterer may never achieve fluency, and hopefulness that is born through self-awareness and becoming a student of speech. May this story keep you always on the side of hope.
