The penultimate issue of the JAMM features three tricks related to gift giving. One to be done with a group at a holiday gathering, another that can be done across vast distances, and a simple trick utilizing an item that I buy in bulk (for about $5/each) and carry with me throughout the holiday season (and much of the rest of the year) as a cool giveaway that everybody keeps.

While I've crammed all of these effects into the theme of gift-giving, the truth is they are effects that you can use year-round in other contexts as well.

Coming tomorrow night to subscribers' email-boxes, The JAMM #11.

I like this one a lot. While the theme of the issue is using magic in the context of gift-giving, a number of the ideas provided can be utilized in a much broader range of contexts. The tricks that bookend the issue present frameworks that you can use for a number of different effects.
