She used Fairy stories to warn her sons and myself away from dangerous areas like the river or an old lime kiln when we were children. Maybe it's in the air there. I think his efforts at keeping these stories should be funded by the government and whatever assistance he needs is given. It would be a national disgrace of all his collected works are not archived and kept in Ireland; as he has stated in the past that he may donate them to an American university who will value them.

One of the methods I use to prevent a conversation/speech from becoming boring is to say the wrong thing. Usually works for me! although sometimes I wish my mouth had a back space key :) My motto (aka Keynes), Words ought to be a little wild for they are the assaults of thought on the unthinking!

WTF? Public speaking is not difficult, try getting up with a guitar, 3 chords and a bunch of dreams... Public speaking becomes easy after that! ;) I actually knew a female colleague who went on a course in London and declared that her boss had told her she didn’t have to do the workshops and left every afternoon.

And I'd add that while it's great to beat down the nerves through practice, I find a small amount necessary. If you are not nervous at all, then you'll lack sharpness. The key is to harness the nervous energy into good delivery. Very true. And I’d add that while it’s great to beat down the nerves through practice, I find a small amount necessary.

Barcamps and open coffees are good for practice as Dennis mentioned. Thanks everyone for the feedback.

I too used to be terribly shy, but over time and much much practice became comfortable speaking in front of crowds. When you are that shy person people tell you to practice, it gets easier. And you'll NEVER NEVER believe them, because it's too hard to imagine. But it really does become easier with practice. Get out there and do it! Geeks are in demand these days, so audiences are easy to come by. Nicely said Damien!
