Featured Topic #1: Snape's biography by Rita Skeeter
Featured Topic #1: Snape's biography by Rita Skeeter
JKR said in an interview that Rita Skeeter wrote a biography of Snape called “Snape: Scoundrel or Saint?” JKR later also characterized Rita’s writing style as “One quarter truth to three quarters rubbish.” [1] So…
What do you think Rita’s biography of Snape was like?
What are some sensationalistic or juicy details that Rita might have included?
What are some examples of half-truths and outright rubbish that Rita might have included?
What do you think Rita’s arguments would be for “scoundrel”?
What do you think Rita’s arguments would be for “saint”?
What did Rita really think of Snape, or did she care?
What did Snape (before he got dead by snake) think of Rita Skeeter, or did he care?
What would some of the other surviving characters think about the book?
What would some of the non-surviving characters think about the book had they lived to read it?
Would the book be a bestseller?
Would the book make Snape a household name?
Would the book help Snape’s rep or make it worse?
What might Snape’s portrait have to say about Rita’s biography?
If Snape had lived and Rita still wrote her biography, what might his reaction have been?

Mod note: Well, the first topic out of the hat is rather light, isn’t it? LOL And yet, I thought up a slew of questions. XP Answer whichever questions interest you or riff on the topic however you like. Have fun and don’t take this topic too seriously.
