The Blurb
Volume one of Minimalistic, Metaphysical Mentalism (MMM) was released in May 2018 and consisted of 362 pages, 20 essays, insights and observations. It also contained a link to a free downloadable video demonstrating multiple utility moves, 46 photographic descriptions covering 30 full mentalism routines worked from your pockets using nothing more than a stack of double blank cards and a pen.
I have got to say I was overwhelmed with the reaction the book received from the worldwide mentalism fraternity because the routines and performance philosophies I shared, are very personal to me and I wasn’t sure if my ramblings and the things I like to perform would make sense, or appeal to anybody else. It seems, judging by the reviews, however, that I was wrong. It was pointed out to me by close mentalism friends, that many of the routines I use which have a, let’s say less psychic approach, are very commercial and would probably appeal to both mentalists and magicians.
With that in mind, I have taken a number of what I consider the most audience-friendly, commercial and easy-to-perform routines from MMM volume one and two, and put them together to create this lecture. I hope everybody, regardless of performance style or level of competency, will get something from this collection.

Jheff's Guide
WHAT IT IS:
e-Book, 51 pages
HOW ACCURATE OR COMPLETE THE BLURB IS:
There are eight routines in these lecture notes that cover a variety of presentations. The blurb doesn’t detail the routines.
JHEFF’S JUDGMENT:
These lecture notes contain eight routines from Scott Creasey’s two books, MINIMALISTIC, METAPHYSICAL MENTALISM and MINIMALISTIC, METAPHYSICAL MENTALISM VOLUME TWO, which feature routines using only a stack of double-blank playing cards, two Sharpie pens, and a case to hold the cards. If you can’t afford the two volumes (available from Lulu, approx. $150 each), these lecture notes are well worth getting in the interim.
