Not only did mine arrive this morning too, but it even fell open at the first page of Destroy This Message, which happens to be my contribution. Now *that's* attention to detail!

EDIT: I swear this is true.

Probably an obvious question but are there any plans for another book to continue the assistance?

Mine arrived too. I really wasn't expecting it before the weekend (bearing in mind what happened with the post last week), so it was a really nice surprise to find it waiting for me.

I'm not sure about that. Rainer from Paralabs told me this evening that there are only 18 copies left. I take that to mean there will be no more for some time to come. But I don't know that for sure.

We're glad that the postal services seem to do their job in a proper way this time.
Nothing to depend on, ... :roll:

Now I would be interested in feedback concerning the content!
There are still 18 more copies ready to be shipped! :wink:

Well, regarding the success of this project we obviously think about this:
a further charity project, a different topic - and to be honest we even have already a content-related idea.
But there is no hurry; in half a year should be a good time to contact potential contributors.

For now you should enjoy the Secret Impressions book, ... :)

Thanks one more time for all your support!
Cheers
Th.

Dear friends,

it took some time but these days we could finally round off the Mentalism Charity Project 2010.
We transfered the raised donations in January to the charities and now they finally confirmed the receipt.

Overall we collected more than $ 11,000.00 - thanks to all your help!
After paying the printing costs (and rounding up the remainder to an even sum on our own) we were able to transfer $ 9,140 (€ 6,700 / £ 5,660) to the charities.

We split up the sum total in donations of different heights corresponding to the particular projects that will be supported.

So we transfered € 2,700 (about $ 3,600 / £ 2,270) to BasicNeeds;
Terre des Hommes got € 4,000 (about $ 5,540 / £ 3,390).

You can look at their confirmations and their 'thank you' even to you, who supported this project, using the following links:



Hereby we like to bow to all of you who supported this project:
Those of you who offered their time and creative work by offering contributions to the Secret Impressions book - thanks a million! Without your contributions we never would have been able to proceed this project!

Those of you who supported the project by purchasing the book and those of you who even donated more than they had to - thank you, thank you, thank you!

And Rainer and me would like to thank our friend Les Cross especially who invested so much time in proof reading and copy editing and who spend even more time in supporting conversations with the charities! The book would have never been what it is without your generous and magnificent support - thank you so much!

So that's it.
We hope you enjoy the feeling of having done a good deed - and obviously we hope that you enjoy the content of the book as well.

Thanks a lot;
let's talk soon!

Rainer & Thomas
