Still recovering from the Penguin Maxx convention on Friday and Saturday. It was only five miles from my house so I thought it would be a breeze but for some reason I was completely burnt out by the end. Maybe sleeping in your own bed is overrated!

I have been preparing for the Penguin Maxx, where I will have some new stuff being introduced, and will tell you all about the cool new magic in the next few weeks.

Had a fantastic night at the SAM Parent Assembly on Friday night. Besides the magic, I had a chance to reminisce and tell stories about our mutual friends.

A few weeks ago, after coming back from Las Vegas I mentioned that my new release sold-out at the convention.

Had a great time in Philadelphia last weekend and I appreciate the few magicians that made the trip to the show.

As I was spending around twelve hours preparing this week’s pdf download, I started thinking about how the magic publishing world changed since it became easier to self-publish and also how the latest trend of selling instructions that show you how to make and build your own gimmicks and props is evolving.

Just as important as the techniques taught on the video and the routine itself are the sections about theory and psychology which can be applied to any routine.

I had an opportunity to purchase a supply of beautiful paddles that were originally released by the Trickery and manufactured by The Magic Wagon under the name Penny Pour.

Just got back from a wonderful Magic Live Convention in Las Vegas where I had an opportunity to hang out with many friends and was also able to make some new contacts that are able to supply me and or manufacture for me some very interesting products and accessories.

Wanted to thank you for all your support and kind words and wishes. Harry Anderson used to often tell me, “Be careful what you wish for… you might actually get it.”
