Magifest is happening this week and I won’t be there and I feel bad. (But not bad enough to buy the $75 livestream.) Two of my favorite magicians growing up, Bill Malone and Jason Latimer will be attending. I have a couple east coast friends who will be attending and if I hear any super spicy drama I’ll post on this blog.
The January date is a bit unpleasant for people who are not professional magicians because offices tend to take time off near the end of December to New Year and be busy at the start of the year. On the other hand, professional magicians are very busy throughout all of December because of all the holiday parties and tend to have a lighter January.
For magicians, this is a great time to prepare for the rest of the year. This both includes “boring” activities such as improving your marketing material as well as fun stuff like learning new stuff to improve your show. I am personally going to buy a new suit as well as having my picture professionally taken.
