First COM speech Hello all! Yesterday I gave my first speech in my communications class. It was an artifact speech that was supposed to be 2-4 minutes long and my ass stood up there and stuttered for almost 10 minutes. I’m now a senior in college and have been putting off taking this class for three years. To anyone who is too scared to public speak this is my proof. I lived. I stutter and I always will, knowing this I refuse to let it stop me pursue any dream or hold me back in any way! I would highly reccomend you do the same, stuttering isn’t that big of a deal let’s start treating it like that.
