Price range: £30.00 through £50.00

Tools, templates, and a clear framework for building bizarre magic that actually plays.

If you’ve ever had a strong idea for a bizarre piece but struggled to turn it into something repeatable, structured, and audience-ready, this book was written for that exact problem.

Crafting the Arcane is not about fog and flourish. It’s about decisions: pacing, structure, character, props, and the final image the audience leaves with.

“Simon, I LOVE it! This is the ULTIMATE tome on Bizarre magic…”

Crafting the Arcane gives you a practical, repeatable process for turning atmosphere into material you can actually perform.

What you’ll learn
Inside you’ll learn three approaches to construction: plot-driven, character-driven, and object-driven. You’ll learn how to use ritual, prophecy, and fate as workable structures you can repeat without losing authenticity. You’ll learn pacing and escalation so your routines have clear beats and strong endings, and you’ll learn transitions and show flow so multiple pieces sit together naturally.

You’ll also get templates that move you from idea to script to performance without getting stuck, plus worksheets and prompts to plan, test, and refine your material.
