Books like "Out With It" and "Life on Delay" Has anyone read other interesting books by people who stutter on their life experiences? I loved "Out With It" and I'm working my way through "Life On Delay". I read that Nina G has a book out about her experiences as a comedian and stuttering, but I don't know anything about her. Do you recommend her book? Any other interesting books by contemporary figures? It's refreshing for me to read about someone who reached acceptance with their speech while still stuttering. With the lists of famous people who stutter, I'm always like, "But you never hear them stutter!" which gives me the idea that it's okay to stutter so long as no one hears it. Not the best takeaway, I know.
