Hello,
I am from the United States. I originally started learning magic back in 1975 (10 years old). I went the usual route with gimmicks for about 5 years until a guy at the local magic shop (Hank Lee's) explained the economics of books. I then turned my attentions to pure sleight of hand with cards and coins. Due to life's events (getting married, having a child, illness, purchasing a home, getting laid off, etc...) I stopped working on magic, and sold most of my stuff. Fortunately my wife convinced me to keep my "favorite" books "just in case". Well, after not touching anything for well over a decade I have retrieved my cards and coins from their storage place, put my books back on the shelves, and I am returning to the one true passion in my life.
I am looking forward to many discussions with the members of this site.
Regards,
Kolisar
