About the Author

Stuart’s expertise comes from over three decades in the corporate and hospitality industries. He has entertained and has been entertained at the highest of corporate levels. His worldwide coalface experiences include winning international awards as executive producer of television commercial productions and achieving the pinnacle award in amateur acting. Penning three unpublished scripts, My Broads Abroad, Now We Are Two, and A Glass Half Full, this story, SSStammering is not a Second Language relates his rise from humble beginnings to stunning successes. Christened Stuart Russell Nelson, yet, for most of his life, he was referred to as SSStuart NNNelson or just NNNelson by his friends and colleagues. After falling through life’s ‘fault line’ at the age of eight, his severe stammering and shyness became the fodder for people to bully and humiliate him. Psychologists describe an ‘alter ego’ as a Second Self. Once a person creates an alter ego, they start dreaming about it and live a life of their own with the ‘alter ego’. This was certainly true of Stuart’s journey. While his growing years presented many hurdles for him, his persistence and perfection in the use of his ‘alter ego’ in the different paths he tread was a key element that enabled him to both challenge and succeed.
