If i start to stutter i stop talking (forcing it never works) i take a breath and then when i exhale, i exhale a small amount first, and then i try again. We will all stutter from time to time, that'...

Probably both and more. I'd say the root cause is probably always breathing, but I don't know if that's more a symptom or a true cause. I've tried different ways to push through the block, but nothing...

For you is it a tension thing? A breath thing? Depending on how it feels to me, I may push through the block, but it’s like a 50-50 if I’m successful or not....

It wasn't popcorn reading per se, but in Japanese class during high school one year our sensei was going by rows to have us read the sentence and answer. I knew what my sentence would be ahead of time...

How do you handle job interviews?

How do you handle job interviews? I'm a successful Technical Writer and general writer, but I always struggle with job interviews as I tend to stutter the worst when talking about myself (I've lost ou...

I know what you mean. I experience that often. I tend to change the word or the structure of the sentence. If it’s my own name, even if it’s a block or think the sound won’t come, I’ll wait until it d...
