Hello everyone, I recently purchased Scripting Magic by Pete McCabe and boy it's a true masterpiece. I'm now scripting all of my magic, but feel a bit stuck on how to actually say the things I write down. The book does give tips on speaking here and there, but I want to get a book on just speaking effectivaly. Are there any good books on the topic of effective public speaking you have found useful for your magic? I want to say the right things at the right times even in informal situations. I would appreciate any suggestions on books that improve your speaking skills in general. Thanks!

Strong Magic gives a lot of information on what to say and what to do to maximize the impact of the trick.

Let's see if I can find my article on writing dialogue. I'll send it to you if you want.
