I suppose i could offer my Flash Paper to rose effect, but it's probably been done a million times and it's just my personal handling on it.

Much love

Aza

Feel free to send it to the email address in the first post, or to PM it to one of us. We will vet for copyright issues and if suitable, include it

Ok, just off the top of my head, I have:
A full coins to glass routine
A presentation for the colour changing knives
A 2 coin routine (2 routines of this type)
A few card bits

And probably quite a few more, thats just what I can remember at the moment. I will look through my notebook later, and send effects in as I write them up (which may be a slow process, as I have little time!). Very excited about this idea!

If it's any quicker you could always create a PRIVATE youtube vid for us and we can script it according to your instructions Create a private vid and send the editors (me, Mandrake, Lawrence, Lady of Mystery) a PM with the link.

If it's okay with you guys, I would enjoy writing my own scripts, as I am quite a keen writer. Feel free to edit what I write to suit the publication, however. Is it okay to include any photo's? If so, colour or black and white?

EDIT: In fact, how about I just send a breif draft description of the effect/method first, so you can decide if you want the effect, and then if it is up to scratch I can write a proper description.

Photos can be colour, if we deem B&W to be more apt we can photoshop that

By all means do what you feel best. This is a book for all by all

A book of Talk Magic magic is a fine idea. If you have some room for some neo-victorian wonderment then perhaps I could put my thinking cap on contribute a routine of mine?

Neo Victorian Wonderment? Yes please, I'd buy the book just for that!

Definitely

As a photographer by trade, will happily contribute anything of that nature.

Okay, I've written up a draft of one of my 2 coin routines, expect it by the end of the weekend. Exhausted now, though. May have to just make a vid of some of the longer routines, or I'll never get them all done!

Thank you!

Ah the Good Dr is singing from the same hymn sheet as myself. I will begin something suitable next week.

We have had some excellent contributions including some from 'established names', please keep them all coming. This is going to be a wicked book

Is there a deadline?

I have some things written up but they are only drafted so I would have to tidy them up so everyone can understand them, not just me.

We will start putting it all together properly in January. So you have some time yet. We'll announce an actual deadline as we near the time.
