My professional name is Phineas Spellbinder and I try to specialize these days in Wizard magic, although sometimes I lapse into conjuring from a force of habit. I've been doing magic for over fifty years, so I am just a beginner and just starting to get the hang of it.

I have a magic related Web site, which I welcome you to visit, but you'll have to find it on your own since commercial magic is forbidden here (I can't think why... I'd love to converse with the guys who run magic shops and who have lots of experience and stories to share, but that's how it is).

I publish a monthly (sometimes) e-magazine called The Wizards' Journal and I try to fill it with things of interest from my years of taking notes, or with contributions from friends.

I am on-line every day and I try to answer my e-mails and personal messages faithfully.

Thanks for sharing your forum space with me.

Hi and welcome! The reason we have that bit about no commercial magic is because so many people have tried to take advantage and just use the forum as a free advertising slot without bothering to contribute anything to the discussions which are the main purpose of the forum. Also there are some who try to sell copied items etc so it was decided ages ago that a blanket ban on such things would be the easiest to administer. It's a sign of the times that the bad minority screw things up for the rest of us but there you go!

Welcome *starts looking for that site *
