Nope. Having prepared text is the absolute worst thing for me as a stutterer. For me, reading out loud to myself has never proved to be an issue. Get another person in the room and let the stuttering begin. The ability to interchange words is my only savings grace....which you can not do with reading from prepared texts. For me, that is where stuttering meets my immediate surroundings, coupled with neurology, along with a solid sprinkling of anxiety to mess me all up.
