Goodness...all those pages of adventures summed up in 140 characters or less?! Well, that's a challenge. Hmm I've never owned the entire HP book set in...it would be nice but I've never been good with writing less . Good luck to those that enter! I would love to see what others come up with.

That sounds amazing!
I do have a question though: does you have to enter through Twitter (as in reply @snitchseeker) or can it just be a 140 character or less entry as a reply on the contest thread rather than through twitter?

It's either or - you can put it as a Twitter post, or comment as is, as long as it's under 140 characters. If you do use Twitter, however, just throw your comment link from there into the competition thread here, so it's easier to keep track of entrants.

Do we have to include correct punctuation? Cuz that takes up valuable character space.

We'd prefer it to be coherent and to the point, though do avoid too many abbreviations.
