She devoted her genius to the Work. With incredible rapidity she picked up the rhythm, and with inexhaustible patience submitted to the correction of the fanatical slave-driver that she had invoked, often painting the same card as many as eight times until it measured up to has Vanadium Steel yardstick!

Delving into the magical powers of the Tarot
My first ever appearance on stage to talk about the tarot was with the help of Jon Tapsell as a precursor to speaking at the Occulture Festival in Brighton a few years ago. As part of my talk, I did some three card readings for some members of the audience, which was very entertaining (many said it was the best bit).
Jon has kindly asked me to come back to the re-launched Occulture Festival on the 23rd May 2009 in London. This time I am really going to push the boat out, as I explore the powerful spiritual forces associated with the tarot, and how they can benefit or influence your life. The nature of such an enterprise makes it live, immediate, and just a bit scary, as I have no idea who I will be doing the readings for, what cards will turn up, and which spirits will want to make themselves known.
