September – Breaking Story

[Prof. Maxim Trevelyan]

Just as you stepped back to the main hallway to speak to Cordelia, a gaggle of columnists surrounded you tearing you away from your lunch. Paper animals that are used to transfer messages started attacking each other so most of the columns for the issue were lost.

Sit down with the columnists and brainstorm ideas for the article. Make up a Top 10 listicle that has to do with magic (e.g. Top 10 Quidditch Fouls) and write briefly about the topic. There is a twist! As there is only so much room in the paper, you need to write it in 100 words or less.

You can be as canon factual or not as you want. Your submission must abide by all HOL rules and be of your own creation.

Post your submission below by September 30th 11:59 pm HOL time to get 25 Hoots and 50 beans.
