Well. This is my first post. I am John O'Bryant. A professional magician from San Antonio Tx. Someone actually commented that I was the youngest professional magician in the city. Anyways, I have been doing magic since I was 7 years old and now I am 17 (getting ready for 18). I do all types of shows fro different occasions, but most of the time (like most of you guys may know) I do kid shows. On Feb. 7, 2006 I performed for 150+ kidergardener ( 5 years old), all their parents, and all the teachers for a total of about 200+ people in a auditorium.

Well about 1 week ago they emailed me and gave me a link to the home page of their website. And I was on it. Although they did not write much about me (more about the kids) it was a good experience.

Just thought I would let you guys know what I do!

Thanks,
John

Hey John,
Great going. It looks like you as well as the kids were having a ball. Never hurts to drop the editor of your local paper a note or press release. You may be surprised at the response.
Keep Magishing

As a courtesy, be sure and send a note to the school thanking them for the invitation and for the publicity on their website. I'm sure you already knew to do that, though. It's good practice to send a note of thanks to the reporter, or whoever covers your act for the media. They'll be more inclined to cover you again later. Trust me....reporters and media members remember things like that.

Congratulations on your show bein g a hit. I wish you many, many more.

Yes, I have contacted a local columnist for the biggest news paper down here but still have not gotten a response so I wrote another one. I'm not giving up until I get a liget response.

I got a call back from the shcool and I will be doing a show for the graduating 5th graders at the end of May 06'.

I plan on going back every year. It will be good publicity and good pay.

Good luck!!
