Did the title of this blog interest you? It interested me and I know what I’m about to write.

Let’s get the negative note out the way first before I dive into some more exciting news! I’m very sorry I forget to blog frequently! I really am going to make more effort this year! (I can still make resolutions in February right?!)

The truth is, I haven’t had as much time in the past couple of years, as I’ve been travelling all over the UK and abroad, performing magic, hypnosis, and reading minds.

For the past 3 years, as well as performing at private events, I’ve been onboard Brittany Ferries, performing my stand up show every night. The show is a mashup of 3 different shows I’ve performed over the years. The scripting has totally changed, and it was difficult to work out what was good enough to stay, and what parts won’t make the cut, but I’ve now performed the new show nearly 300 times, and it’s been going down really well! I can’t wait to take the show onto a brand new ship this year, starting in March, and ending in November!

As well as performing, I’ve spent a lot of time consulting, and creating new, effects for myself and for other magicians to use in their shows. It can often be hard to create new material, when there’s so much out there, but I was once told that creativity is a muscle, and the more you train and practise it, the easier it becomes. This has definitely been the case recently. I’ve had more creative bursts than ever, and can’t wait to share some of these acts on stage soon!

Now, I know I’ve said this multiple times in the past, but I really will try to blog more this year. I’m not sure anyone actually reads these, but it’s a nice way for me to unwind for an hour at the end of a week. As well as that, if I’m ever writing one of these blogs in a Starbucks, library, or other public place, it makes people think I’m doing serious, important work.

Hopefully I’ll write soon with some more updates – I’ll set a reminder on my phone now.

Until next time!
