Re: How to be a good mage? :-)
Stats:
INT - affects your mana capacity, maybe affects damage
Skills:
Magery - determines fizzle frequency, maybe affects damage
Evaluating Intelligence - affects damage
Meditation - affects mana regeneration
Inscription - affects damage
Resisting Spells - protection against spell damage
(Healing - maybe gives bonus for healing spells)
(Anatomy - maybe gives bonus for attack spells)
(Poisoning - maybe gives bonus for poison spells)
if you also use cleric spells (say "i pray to the gods")
Spirit speak - affects cleric spells fizzle rate
if you also use druid spells
Animal Lore, Animal Taming - one of the two affects fizzle rate, other gives some efficiency bonus...

Get 5x nobles and spam heals 
All joking aside I've found necromancy to be a handy spell casting skill, wither is amazing for cheap mana AoE, wraith form will regain your mana by using a bow or weapon and corpse skin will lower enemies fire resists to make many of your fire based magery skills all that much more effective.
