redefining stuttering by john harrison

redefining stuttering by john harrison hi guys! i’ve been in this sub for awhile and i’ve seen the book “redefining stuttering” by john harrison recommended several times. for a long time i kinda rolled my eyes and assumed it wasn’t as helpful as people were making it seem. spoiler: it is! this book has been really enlightening and is helping me focus on fluency while speaking rather than avoiding stuttering, if that makes sense. i’m only 100ish pages in. i still stutter, but i’m getting more fluent and will sometimes even think to myself “wow i said that whole thing perfectly.” it’s a slow process but i’m excited to see how much more i improve. i like to read it out loud to myself before bed to get practice and build my confidence around certain words and sounds. i wanted to share an excerpt from what i recently read and i hope it encourages others to check it out:
