I don't understand the question, and I suspect I'm not the only one. Please clarify.

All magic can be done as mentalism, which will the subject of my book "No, the clean hand....oh, that was the clean hand".

It will feature my book test done with the coloring book, which has been hailed by some of the top mentalists working today as "revolutionary".

Chronologue with a signed card to wallet. I created that after seeing so many mentalists produce the card and then the trick was over, leaving the audience with a "is that it?" feeling. I'll cover that in a chapter called "kick your trick".

My Color Divination done with sponge balls. It's another example of not just letting a trick hang there.

It will come with private, performance only, youtube links. I've had trouble getting paid gigs the last 25 years, so it will be just me for the camera. Any Mentalist worth their salt won't need to see performances for an audience.

Most likely I'll be taking pre-orders so that I'll have Christmas money. Then I'll begin writing it in the spring or summer. In the old days there was quite a vetting process to get something published ( checking for originality, crediting, etc. ). That was time consuming and many times boiled down to "who you knew". Fortunately today, anyone can publish anything rather quickly. Crediting can be done after a release as people will let you know if the material has been done by others. You can make corrections if you decide to print a second run. Good thing about that is that you can add extra material to entice those that have the first edition to make a second purchase. It's all about marketing ( which I will also cover ).

I'm open to giving out a few review copies to a few working pro's, but I'll have to see the reviews before they're posted. Just so that I can make any edits/additions, if needed.

Perfectly true. Almost all magic can potentially be reframed as PK.

What as in "This blue backed card that now has a red back isn't really red, I just alerted your mind to make it look red to you!" ?

David Copperfield's 'Flying' routine must be a major mentalist induced hallucination! Smile
