About this ebook
Being able to do real magic sounds like it would be a real hoot. However, the combination of being able to do real magic and an unpredictable level of control is a very different animal! Sleight of Hand is a short story about just such a person, and a little scare he had on the job--well... maybe two scares.

I'm a physicist trying to get into writing. I read a lot of mystery, sci-fi, and fantasy, and my writings hit the same genres (or I guess, will hit those genres--I still don't have a lot of pieces published). My greatest influence is probably Rex Stout.Check out my blog rnkfiction.blogspot.com for free short fiction and commentary on writing.Thanks for checking out my profile!
