It's come to my attention that someone in the U.

Re: Poll: With which magician would you like to spend an evening talking magic?
The two greatest magical memories for me have been the opportunity to spend about an hour and a half learning mnemonics one-on-one from Max Maven at the Castle. Max somehow must be related to Jay Marshall, with his deep and practical knowledge of magic. I also had the extreme pleasure of closing the...

Re: The really odd things one finds on the Cafe
The best thing I ever did for my magic was to get myself permanently banned from the "Green Wastes."
Now I find I have much more time to practice, rehearse, and read magic books.
