Hi guys, I’ve been writing my fan fiction novel most afternoons after school when I’m not playing Yu-Gi-Oh cards with my brother, and also sometimes on the weekend. I got the idea to write it because I was inspired by the Harry Potter series and thought there could be a lot more to the wizarding world — so I decided to make it for myself. I can’t wait to share it with you — here is part one of chapter one.

PART 1
INTRODUCING MR FINCH WHOOTINGWORTH

“Excuse me Seamus.”
I looked up from the book I was holding, it was Mr. Finch Whootingworth, he was the school librarian. He was a very short figure, with two big eyes (that were almost bigger then his head), spectacles that were just as big as his eyes and a short stubby nose that hooked at the end. He had brown robes that trailed down to his waist and frilled at the end. He always had his hands drawn behind his back and his feet looked as though they were yellow talons.
Mr Finch Whootingworth looked rather like an owl.
“May I borrow that book?” he asked.
“Well I’m afraid I’m not supposed to lend it to you, it’s a Dark Arts book and only the professors can use it.”
“Well. May I look at the title?”
“I guess that won’t hurt,” I said reluctantly. I shut the book and turned it over. The title said, One Hundred And Ninety Six Dark Arts Legends: From The Light Into The Dark by Professor Vindicates Viridian.
Finch nodded.“Well, what a pity,” he muttered as he flew out the door.

“Ahem!” I looked to my left, it was the Time Table. The Time Table was a short bedside table with a small clock on top. It had a large frown spread across its face and was looking VERY GRUMPY.
“Sir, you will need to go to platform nine and two-quarters to pick up the newbies.”
“Is it time already?”
The Time Table made a very severe face.
“Alright,” I said as I rolled my eyes.
“And take this.” The Time Table passed a rather old-looking scroll and put it on the desk in front of me. It was a time table to help me remember what and when to do something. I got up, straightened my robes and rolled up the scroll.
I decided to make sure all was prepped and ready for the upcoming school year.

TO BE CONT.

I haven’t decided what to call my novel yet so I’d love to know what you think, let me know in the comments!
