I can't stand cancelled magic club meetings! So I made this...
www.MyMagicMeeting.com
Join me Thursday night for a live, interactive video magic club meeting. You can participate, and even become a part of the scheduled program by proposing a talk.
Magicians: Please share this with your local clubs that are currently on hiatus.
Why not have some fun and share some magic and thoughts with all of you while we’re all home for a few weeks! I hope to hear from all of you in the chat this week.
MYSTERY SCHOOL MONDAY is held every Monday night at 7:00-8:00pm pacific time. The following link will take you into our classroom as early as 6:45pm: https://zoom.us/j/562254051

Hello Dear Friends:
It is with a sad heart that I write to you to say that Tom passed away last night at the Vancouver General Hospital surrounded and supported my his brother, Bill; sisters, Brenda and Patrice; brother-in-law George; and myself.
Tom was a gentle soul with a wondrous interest in life. He quietly and stoically faced the challenges of Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia over the past six years.
He touched the hearts and minds of many. May you cherish the special moments that he had with you.
Tom did not wish to have a funeral. His wish was to be cremated, and some of his ashes sprinkled on Lake Ontario where he spend many hours sailing.
He had many future ideas planned with regard to his writings, music, and travel.
One of the first (of many) sayings he said to me was … “act little braver than you may feel”.
We cherish all your kind words, cards, messages, phone calls, and thoughts.
Please keep in touch when you can.
A hug to you all,
Wenda
Phil and Evelyn Matlin, my parents, own a beloved Montreal institution called Perfect Magic. It is, fittingly, a magic shop that’s been serving the community for more than 43 years. Walk in and you’re likely to find amateur hobbyists alongside pros chatting about technique. Or a seasoned performer giving some tips to a kid just starting out. It’s a unique experience.
My dad is 83 now, and my mom is 79 and undergoing treatment for ovarian cancer, yet they still go to work every day. Whenever I ask them about retiring, my dad shakes his head. “What would I do?” he asks. They’re happy. And I’m happy for them. My dad followed a dream and it led them to not only run a business that supported a family with four children, but also left a lasting mark on the magic community at large.
It’s funny how we got here.

5 low or no cost things to do if you can't perform over the next few weeks:
1. Go for a walk.
2. Write new material.
3. Clean/repair/upgrade your props.
4. Do your taxes (and invest your refund).
5. Don't worry. The work will come back in greater abundance.
