hey, how's everyone doing?
I'm James, living just north of Dallas, Texas. I was learned of this group at the beginning of April from Chris Mayhew on a different social media group. it took 15 minutes of clicking through the website to know I had to be a part of this. I'm glad I did. I was able to hang out with a lot of you during parts of the virtual conference over the last weekend and it was incredible. Lee puts on a fantastic event, as well as all the other people behind the scenes.
I've been a fan of playing cards since I was a teenager, always had a deck of cards in my backpack or pocket, but typically just the regular rider backs. I was always fascinated with magic and sleight of hand. When I was a kid my parents paid a guy to come over to house once a week for a few months to teach me magic. It was an awesome experience. I fell out of it for a few decades unfortunately. Last summer, thanks to a few youtube channels, my love was rekindled. I found myself buying decks of cards from magicians I was following, such as Chris Ramsay and Xavior Spade. I started grabbing decks from other companies like Theory11, Art of Play, Bicycle, Tally-Ho and a smattering of others I've picked up from random shops. I started following some of the cardists and magicians on youtube, Dan&Dave, Jaspas Deck, LotusinHand, Ekatrina, Zach Mueller and Andrei Jihk.
Hoping to make it to the convention in October and meeting you in person.
