Hi guys, just to follow up on a previous thread ref: the second editions of my Mythology trilogy books Mitox, Yokai and Mokele. I've finished the bulk of the editing on Mitox, and that file has been sent off for proofing - the updates from you guys were invaluable at producing a more up-to-date version of the original text, and now I'm working on Yokai and Mokele. Neither of these has moved so much as Mitox, and short of basically erasing the original Quinta method from history (and Yokai) I will not be changing much besides the layout etc. (Just looking now, I'm going to downgrade KitKat to an addendum I think & replace it in the main text with my new #1 p**k wa**et alternative, a no gimmick no sleight life p**k called The Biz - it's just better, and I want the books to be the best. The same with Sidestep / Trapezoid, The Biz is just better - I'll rewrite the effect with the new method, and also include the original method in an appendix or whatever? Does this make sense?)

Before I put the hammer down on these, I was wondering if anyone had any of their own updates or thoughts on the material in those books. For a refresher, here are the effects lists from the two texts:

Of course all input will be fully credited. All the best,

Is 'The Biz' published anywhere yet?

Not yet, it will be featured in my (and here you need to imagine this next bit surrounded by flashing showbiz lights because I'm super excited about it) PENGUIN LECTURE in June.

Phill

Thanks!

That's a lecture to look forward to.

I'm really looking forward to it Sean, I'm going to cover a bunch of old stuff and few new things that should be fun.

Phill

Phill- Will you explain your QUINTA force in your penguin event?

I'm going to cover it, yes.

Phill

Sweet :p

Just a quick look at the revised style, based on the layout of the Quinta book, which I liked the look and feel of.

Those are beautiful covers!

Now I've got all the files in place I've put together something else that's been in the pipeline for ages - a compilation of *just* the essays and premises from the 2nd edition Mythology books. I'm not sure who it's for, but whoever it is, it's there.
