ABSTRACT
As long as researchers keep publishing their results, as long as speechlanguage pathologists share case reports, as long as people who stutter recount their experiences-in short, for as long as people keep writing about stuttering, there will be reading material to help people who stutter and their speech-language pathologists navigate the road to recovery. While this book has attempted to provide such material, more is available elsewhere. Better yet, much of it is easily accessible, particularly for anyone with a computer. Indeed, easy-to-read stories, essays, poems, and informational material about stuttering are posted on a variety of Web sites. Three are listed here:
The Stuttering Home Page: https://www.mankato.msus.edu/depts/ comdis/kuster/stutter.html
Pacesetters (an Australian stuttering organization): https:// www.ideal.net.au/~wicksp
The International Stuttering Association: https://www.stutterisa.org
The Stuttering Home Page, a good place to begin an essay search (or, for that matter, a search for anything related to stuttering), is accessed easiest by typing most any combination of the words stuttering, home, and page (including just stuttering) into a browser. Not only are recoveryrelated writings available, but links to other sites and stuttering organizations are as well. Also accessible from the Stuttering Home Page are the
International Stuttering Awareness Day (ISAD) Conferences, the Internet exchanges that take place each year between October 1 and 22. Prior to each year’s conference, researchers, therapists, parents, people who stutter, and others are invited to submit short papers, which are posted on the ISAD site every October 1st. For 3 weeks, conference attendees not only have the opportunity to read papers designed for the general public, but also to post questions and comments for (and receive feedback from) the authors. After October 22nd (the actual International Stuttering Awareness Day), the papers and discussions remain on-line. I recommended reading both for a more in-depth understanding of the topics presented.
