== [[Fan Works]] ==
* Up until her early twenties, Kaitlyn Hutchins of ''[[Undocumented Features]]'' suffered from a severe stutter. Like many real-world performers, it went away when she sang; it also tended to minimize when she was around people she was close to (and vanished completely with her lovers and with one deeply-beloved family friend). It also vanished when she [[Let's Get Dangerous|went full-bore samurai on someone]]. She eventually lost it almost entirely in her early twenties, with the help of another family friend.

Line 27:
* Bill Denbrough from [[Stephen King]]'s ''[[IT]]''. Both Richie Tozier and Beverly Marsh remark on the fact that "Stuttering Bill doesn't realize that he doesn't, always".
* In [[Isaac Asimov]]'s short story "Galley Slave", sociology professor Simon Ninheimer stuttered almost all the way through to the end, where he gives a eloquent speech of the evils of AI proofreaders.
* Simon has a stutter throughout most of the ''[[Discworld]]'' novel ''[[Discworld/Equal Rites|Equal Rites]]'', but loses it after a run-in with some [[Cosmic Horror]]s.
* ''[[Erast Fandorin]]'' has a stutter/verbal tic that goes away when he's in disguise/in more [[Let's Get Dangerous]] moments.
