The Worker's Writer by Tom Phoenix

Effect

The Worker's Writer creates the appearance of a magician or mentalist writing a prediction or message in real time, often under seemingly impossible conditions. The performer may write something while blindfolded, with their back turned, or without directly looking at the writing surface. The final written message matches a previously stated prediction or a spectator's freely chosen thought, producing a strong moment of mystery.
