Dunno, but Ed Alonzo had a character on "Saved By The Bell" back in the early 90's.

Awake and lost in thought while trying to overcome writters block. And yourself?

While I agree, there is something to be said for having a resource for getting started. Perhaps using something like this as an idea generator to give you a building block or foundation to work with would be a worth while endevor. I know I read a book inside the Magic Castle library once that...

Yeah, he's also on the board of directors for the Academy of Magical Arts / Magic Castle too. Ran into him a few times there. He's a nice guy.

Wow. Good read. Solid advice. I applaud sir! You know... we used to have a thread on here where people's essays were recorded for ease of finding, and reading. If that thread is still around this would do well to get added onto it.

Thanks for the tips. The site is obviously a work in progress. I have no technical skills with html, so until I can hire someone to do this for me, I'll need to stick to pre-made editors and the like. corrected spelling. Can't believe "sleight" got by me. Bio fixed. Banners...

I'm pleased to say that I've launched my first promotional website. This is still very much a work in progress but I'd be open to ideas, comments, members, and suggestions. http://www.williamdraven.webs.com Let me know what you think! Also... if I don't hear back on any initiative by...

What is your name? William Draven How long have you been doing magic? I've been studing magic for 26 years. I've been professional now for about 10 years. How long have you been a member of T11? About a year. I joined in December 1st of 2008 In your opinion, how has...

Being a magician, and being an entertainer are two seperate things. Further, being an entertainer who does magic is someting diffrent too. They require two seperate skill sets. Half the crappy exposure videos on youtube are of magicians. Which is why I strive to NOT be a magician...

-----------------------------------Edit! I stand down, and retract my statement. I completely read the title of this as Kings Rising. wich IS a levetation effect. My bad. I must need more coffee.

If you are not doing SOMETHING with a picture frame in your act, then you are missing a captial oppertunity.

Wow that's a really good point there Kyle! And Danna Daniels does something like that in his "No Show" act. In the right hands, that could play very well.

...this is what happens when I start thinking too much about a single topic of interest for FAR to long. 8 hours later I've filled up 28 pages of notes in my personal journal about this subject, and drafted a 10 point outline that is still growing strong. I feel that I've maybe only covered...

I can't really go into too much detail here without typing out a seven page essay. This is a subject that I've thought long and hard over, before coming to a resolution. (Obviously since I wasn't born with the name "William Draven", it's a stage name.) This is really a hot subject, and...

Damn. Well Here's to you man, for trying. I'll drink my cup of morning coffee to your honor. Cheers, Will

Read your reply in the halloween thread. Just so you know the Holy Roman Catholic Church isn't as clean as you think. Their hands have been stained by the blood of innocent victems they have been responsible for masacuring dating back since the late 1500's. (Inqusition) Let us not forget that...

Time for movie prop building 101! Take a large, very large, if not overly large butcher knife or chef's knife with a wooden handle. Carve out a bowl on one side of the handle. Out a little hot glue in the bowl and attach a rubber bulb. You can easly buy these at any Babies R Us store...

I went to the bookstore yesterday to get a copy of Darwin Ortiz's "Strong Magic" only to learn that the book has gone out of print. DAMNIT! Does anyone have a line or resource to get a copy of this work? Even if it's a digital copy? Thanks, Draven

Wow... err Thank you! I am most humbled and honored by this post. I am not worthy of such adoration. Thank you very much sir.

Of course we are!
