Magic University back-to-school week… Day One!

So the big one is coming, the finale of my Magic University series. Yes, Kyle has reached his senior year, but before he graduates there's a lot to do… like figure out a thesis topic, find true love, and… maybe save everyone from the magical cataclysm prophesied in 3rd century…?

Each day this week I'll give away the winner's choice of a signed copy of book 1, or an ebook collection of books 1-3, to get folks psyched up for the release of the final volume.

Each day I'll also reveal something about the magical universe, or post some other fun thing to get you ready to go Back to School at the Magic University.

Today's post, have you noticed how Veritas sneaks into the news? Check out this article from the Boston Globe: 10 most sexually active cities." Clearly this is the influence of the Esoteric Arts department…?

Quality Health says: "This academic hub, which houses both Harvard and M.I.T., is also the city with the most relationship savvy: 58 percent of its romantic Amazon.com purchases are books about relationships. Cambridge's lower-than-average birth rates kept it from earning a top spot on our list, but it's interesting to note that in 1991 Massachusetts became the first location to institute a statewide condom availability program in its high schools."

"I'm willing to do a lot of things for the house. But you aren't one of them."
