So the technique I use is continuous voicing. I begin my voice gently on the first sound and try to continue the vocal vibrations by blending words together. I do this by hanging onto the tail-end of every word as I begin the next word. I can say that as a technique, this does work but not all the time. It just takes a lot of concentration to consciously remember to do this in any given situation. My first instinct is to just open my mouth and talk but very quickly I remember that I am a stutterer and that talking doesn't come easy. As I said in my opening post, sometimes I don't feel like going through all the hassle to do something which comes so naturally to other people (non-stutterers). Sometimes I just want to talk, no strings attached.
