| | Lawyer sat on Deathly Hallows to keep it secret The Sun is today running an amusing story claiming that a lawyer sat on the manuscript for Deathly Hallows whilst on a flight to the US (to Scholastic for the book to be edited), to keep it secret. In order to ensure no-one stole it, Mark Seidenfeld refrained from going to the toilet for six hours. Quote:
Once in the States, all the editors took a vow of silence when working on the novel in a sealed room.

Haha. Poor guy, no potty breaks.
A thought just struck my head... What if he couldn't hold it, then it'd all go over the manuscript. And we'd be doomed to wait for even longer. |

__________________ I gotta go back to the muggle world,
they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,
but you know what? It was real. It did happen.
We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. |
