Announcing "Humans of Magic: Year One"...the book of interviews with cool people!



In 2016, I started an interview podcast called “Humans of Magic.” The podcast focuses on deep 1:1 discussions with Magic players and personalities. The goal is to give them a forum to express the things that they care deeply about, that you may not know from their regularly produced strategy content.

For example:

• How did Paulo Vitor Damo da Rosa grow up playing Magic in Brazil?
• What makes it difficult for Gerry Thompson to stay in touch with friends?
• Why is Christian Calcano pursuing a career outside of Magic?
• What did Bob Huang learn about life, after traveling around the world?

Through these conversations, I want to give you insight as to WHO these people are — and not just what they do when they sit down to play Magic.

Podcasting is a great way to get my guests to open up, but it is not easy to listen to hours upon hours of content. This is why I have decided to transcribe these talks from AUDIO to TEXT so that you can fully enjoy the fruits of our labor. I am launching the Humans of Magic: Year One book anthology in Q4 2017. It will contain a collection of the best interviews.

Whether you are trying to become a better player, or just interested in knowing more about the biggest names in Magic, there is something in here for everyone. I promise that these will be the most in-depth interviews with Magic players that you will ever read.

And we are going to have some amazing Legacy representation. Here is a preliminary list of featured players:

• Jarvis Yu
• Caleb Durward
• PVDDR
• Gerry Thompson
• Bob Huang
• Julian Knab
• Bryant Cook
• Thomas Enevoldsen
• Michael Bonde
• Wilson Hunter
• Roland Chang
• ...and more

Here is more information about how you can get on the mailing list to get bonus content about the book. I also have a sneak preview of one of my earliest interviews - with Jarvis Yu:

That's it for now -- I hope you will be interested in supporting the interview series!

Best,
James

I bought this book. I bought it just for LSV. Maybe there’s a hidden code that unlocks the secrets of drafting a good storm deck

slice master's basic idea is to solve puzzles by correctly slicing items. By swiping their fingers over the screen, players can cut a wide range of objects, including fruits, vegetables, and other items.
