Does anyone else get random bursts of creativity at times when they’re not prepared to deal with them? It seems like every day I’m at work I think of random ideas for a routine, or a new handling for something, or bits of patter. I’m not in a position to work on it then and there, and it seems that even if I write things down the creativity leaves me as time passes. When I’m home and ready to work on something, it just doesn’t come for me. I don’t know why that is, and I’m trying to overcome it. Hopefully I will soon.

I had some remodeling done a few months back, so I had to pack most of my things into boxes and shove them into the basement. I was digging through them today trying to find a book to loan to a friend when I uncovered a bunch of magic I knew I had, but didn’t quite know where they were:

Maximum Entertainment - Ken Weber
Swami/Mantra - Sam Dalal
The Art of Krowd Keeping - Gazzo
100 Ways to Win a Ten-Spot - Paul Zenon
More Magical Science - Eric Ladizinski

I’ll add these to the Magic Shelf Master List and get reviewing them. It’s been a really slow start on the reviews, but I’ll get there eventually.

There was also a bunch of magazines that I don’t know if I’m going to consider part of the shelf, simply because I don’t know how I’d be able to review them. I’ve got roughly 15 assorted copies of MUM, Genii, and Magic magazines from the 70s, and what I believe is the entire run of Street Magic Magazine. I also found my Rocky Raccoon, my escape shackles, and several decks of cards I’ve been missing from my collection.

It’s like Christmas!
