2014: The Year Of The Deductionist…
Hello friends and Happy New Year!
I’ve written this special New Years post to share with you what I’ve been up to, a monolithic project I’m sure ALL of you are going to thoroughly enjoy!
Firstly, as any Sherlock Holmes fan knows January 1st is the premier of the third season of the BBC’s epic Sherlock Holmes adaption, SHERLOCK. After two long years of waiting since the dramatic conclusion of season two, the resolution is finally upon us. Pun emphatically intended.
So with the spirit of Holmes in the air and the dawning of this new year I’ve come bringing you fantastic news. I’ve been rather quiet this year about current projects, after a couple projects I was working on last year didn’t quite pan out, I decided to start work on my lifelong dream. To write the COMPLETE work on the subject of Deduction in the 21st Century. Anyone wanting to LEARN to be able to read and deduce people like Holmes does, is going to want to have this. Yet I haven’t done it alone…
Enter Ben Cardall: Ben is a British Mentalist and dear friend of mine, he is the only other person I’ve ever known to take the art of deduction and turn it into a serious study, and achieve phenomenal deductive abilities. I asked Ben earlier this year if he would like to co-write this monograph with me and he enthusiastically agreed. I decided for the sake of being complete I would take on Ben as a co-writer, and work on this guidebook hand in hand with the one man that see’s the world through the same lens as myself. Ben has specialty areas of deduction that I had never explored, and vise versa. The decision to write this together was an easy one.
This is shaping up to be a very long, very in depth book. Everything about a person is analyzed in depth, from shoes to hair, from tattoos to fingernails, from cell phones all the way to the creases in their clothes. We have broken down every section into easy to swallow bits. We have contributions inside the book from some VERY exciting people including Joe Navarro and Peter Turner JUST to name a couple, and that’s merely the TIP of the iceberg friends…
As many of you know I’ve spent literally my ENTIRE life turning the idea of Holmesian deduction into a real world workable skill, and rather succeeded at it. This book, this bible, this manual, this monograph, is the ULTIMATE guide to using Sherlockian Deduction in our day and age, to achieve great ends. From the Sherlock fan, to the detective, to the performer or even the police officer, this book will enable YOU to know what seems like the impossible about a person, at just a glance. Who doesn’t want that?
We are finishing up some of the more intensive areas of the book and expect to have it ready for release ideally this spring. We’ve already been literally overwhelmed with requests for this book, from just the few ‘hints’ we’ve posted online recently. I will keep you posted on the release date and be sharing some excerpts from the book over the next two months. You can also keep up to date by following us on Twitter & Facebook, links below.
Happy New Year friends!
