Well, I wouldn't be buying a book based on how many effects it contained. I would buy it because I wanted to see the author's take on certain effects or if there was a number of new methods involved that I thought would be worth reading about. If the book was entirely "tricks" then I would think...

Personally, I probably would. That's if it was an actual BOOK, not just a single effect. Magic e-books are great in my opinion, as they are affordable by my budget and I enjoy using my Kindle to study magic. Nothing is as great as owning an actual magic book for your collection, but e-books have...

I came here to post this, essentially. A business degree isn't going to be MANDATORY for being a magician, I don't know why anybody would ever think that. Hell, college isn't mandatory. If you're going to pay for school pay for something you enjoy doing and that you can devote 4+ years to...

It's good to see how negative everybody is about his happiness, it's a nice reminder of why I don't come to these forums anymore. Aviva, awesome job getting ahold of all those, it sounds like a wicked collection.

I've never once heard of it in my life, and I find it interesting. Thank you OP, definitely some awesome stuff. Peace

You're the kind of person magic is for, and I thank you for sharing your story.

I wouldn't say I'm the best of magicians, it's definitely a love of mine but it is far from the focus of my life. As such, David Blaine hasn't really affect the practice of magic for me. Sure, he's influenced a lot of magicians to adopt a "street magic" type persona, but I really dislike that...

So as soon as he starts presenting instead of doing only magic, you start to complain? Sounds about right for this place. You need to clarify that this isn't an original effect, but merely a new presentation for an existing effect. Considering you did everything exactly the same as the...

Using a double backed card to perform card to wallet is about as bad looking as it gets. There's NO reason to even involve the deck of cards if their card is supposedly already in your wallet. The way I do it is extremely easy, looks clean, and gets a really good reaction. I don't use a...

It's a good thing you were giving him constructive criticism and not just being a prick. Quit being so damn negative. This video actually reminded me of something I saw a few years back, it was nice to be taken back to that time. Thank you for sharing this with us. Peace :)

Congratulations to those who won and everybody who entered. I also would love to see some of those stories! I hope everybody who received a gift will be able to benefit greatly from it. Thanks to Wayne for doing this, I'm sure he's helped far more than he realizes. Peace

I've found many of these in the low 20s at antique stores, though I'm not sure any were as old as yours. I have on of my own from 1898 I believe, and it is hands down my favorite coin. If you are considering selling it, I recommend you try some coin magic with it first. At least to me they...

My name is Sam, of course. I'm 18 years old and currently attending college in Missouri. I'm studying Aerospace Engineering and Mathematics. I've been into magic for around 2 years now and I have enjoyed every minute of it. It's great seeing all these, it gives a whole new perspective to...

Instead of sitting down at the computer, I shut it off and grab some cards or other such things. It really isn't difficult to find some down time to play around with magic, and you don't have to be hard on yourself to practice. Just relax with your magic, at least that is what I do and it...

If you had a chance to tell your ten-year-younger self something to inspire or help guide him, what would you say? Perhaps not necessarily ten years younger, but at a time when you maybe needed to hear something. Peace :)

If you've received a PM about this now, I think you should consider editing out most of your post. It seems like a bit of exposure to me. I don't own the effect, but I believe you may be giving part of it away. Peace :)

Ich glaube nicht, dass ich dieses Recht... It is always nice to have an opening for more language usage. The problem I see is that limits what other users are able to read, if perhaps they were interested in the topic but are unable to understand your language. Peace :)

I really like the effort you've put into this, let me first say that. My problem was in your words. You've done a good job by actually coming up with something to say (and being able to keep talking while doing the magic), but you need it to make sense. I wasn't able to follow what you were...

Who cares if he's a "copycat"? He's got a hell of a lot more personality than I see from most of the people here. Leave him alone. That said, I think this is a perfectly good welcome to the forums for him. This is what's it's like. I liked your performance of exile (That's all I had the...
