Notebooks are where the ideas start for me. Moleskine notebooks to be more exact. Here's my first posting of one of my initial sketches/concept entries.
I should also mention a little about the plot of the novel. If the title didn't give it away, it's about magicians. I know, I know, magicians and magic stories are under every rock these days. The difference is that for me, magic is part of my life.
In second grade I learned my first tricks from my Uncle. I've been performing ever since. So this book is a culmination of all those mispent years in a way. I've combined my passion and knowledge of magic into a fantasy about magicians.
