Bogg appears in a Magic book! 6/19/2007 1:54:35 AM
“By the Lords of Magic”! How mysterious! It’s incredible, but true. Bogg! has become so internationally acclaimed and famous that it is now being quoted in other books.
I was surprised and quite delighted to find this fact out when doing a Google search last week. The search revealed an entry ‘Magic Words – page 170’ so I looked. There, half way down the page was a quote from none other than my Mysterious Stranger, as a usage in literature for a magical command. The fact that the character is the Mysterious Stranger is very apt because how this quote got in to the book is a complete and utter mystery to me!
The book is called ‘Magic Words: A Dictionary’ and is written by Craig Conley (who is, apparently, ‘the inventor of the concept of the virtual pet’) and seems to be somewhat of a big name in Magic Circles.
I am glad that he has acknowledged me (as he should) on the page but have no idea how or why he decided to quote from Bogg! Unfortunately, there appears to be no contact details on any site that I have found for him so I am unable to put the question to him. If anyone who reads this knows of any contact details, please let me know. If Craig is reading this, please contact me! I am genuinely pleased at being quoted and would really like to know the background to using the quote.
