Ebook - Word of Mind by Terri Rogers

The Ultimate Thought-of Word Revelation

Imagine this: A spectator holds a common theatrical review sheet, filled with countless words across various articles. You ask them to merely 'think' of any word they wish. There's no writing, no fishing, no restrictions—just a silent, private choice from hundreds of possibilities. The word exists solely within their mind. Then, with an air of profound concentration, you begin to reveal their exact thought, letter by agonizing letter, until the chosen word stands fully exposed. This isn't just an illusion; it's a demonstration of pure, unadulterated mentalism, direct and undeniably impactful.

Terri Rogers' 'Word of Mind' is a masterpiece of mental magic designed for maximum impact with minimal effort. The beauty of this effect lies in its simplicity for the performer and its devastating complexity for the audience. Once you've revealed their thought, the spectator can immediately choose a new word, and you're ready to repeat the miracle without any reset or preparation. This seamless repeatability makes it perfect for both impromptu close-up performances and more formal settings, allowing you to showcase your incredible 'psychic' abilities multiple times, baffling even the most discerning observers.

Ingenious Self-Working Method

Original Specs

A spectator is handed a theatrical review sheet and is asked to choose one of the hundreds of words that make up the various articles. There is no restriction of choice and the word is not written down. It is merely thought of by the spectator.

When the spectator is ready the mentalist begins to concentrate and slowly, letter by letter, reveals the mentally chosen word. It is that direct. A spectator things of a word and you reveal it. The spectator can choose a different word and you can repeat the effect right away.

Simple to learn, simple to perform, devastating in effect. What more could you ask?

[Note: This effect uses interlocking anagrams to determine the chosen word. The crib sheet is cleverly built into the theatrical review sheet. This effect is therefore literally self-working. No memorization required. Once you have familiarized yourself with the crib sheet and how it is embedded into the theatrical review sheet you are ready to perform it.]
