My three questions:

1) When designing your stage show, how do you go about deciding which effects to use? In a similar vein, do you always use original effects, or do you like to throw in some oldies (that you would no doubt modify to fit the theme of the show, and fit your character/style)? I guess what I'm asking is what is the process you go through when designing a stage show/performance?

2) Do you have any particular books, DVDs, or other sources that you would suggest (aside from the 1-on-1's you've released--I LOVED those, by the way) for someone who would like to start putting together any type of stage or parlor type of show, that doesn't include card manipulation or large scale stage props?

3) How did you get your start in magic? Like, what/who were your influences, your motivations to get started and to keep going in magic?

Thanks for your time!

2. Do you have an mentor, if so, who is that person, and how has he/she helped you along the way? (not sure if that's one question or did i used up all three...)
3. Which book made the largest impact in your current performance?

How do people percieve your "look" when it comes to magic? (your makeup and clothing and hair)

Why did you decide to put out a video on the working of Gypsy Thread?

How is your style helpful with your magic?
