Dennis Creevey: Stakeout #37
I don't know why my editor insists on changing the title of every single piece that's handed into her. It's not that her titles are bad - they use a few too many puns sometimes, but then we are writing for the Prophet - it's just that no matter how good a title you write, she always changes it up.

For example, I had this article published yesterday:

Fine right? Well yeah, apart from the fact that I had to literally get on my hands and knees to get her to keep that title and not change it to "All fur one and one fur all" which apart from being horribly punny, would have fallen rather flat with anyone who hasn't happened to have read the Three Musketeers.

Anyway, how is everyone? This journal is keeping me awake on possibly the most boring stakeout in the history of stakeouts. The joys of being the junior reporter on the beat, right?

I don't know what you did to the cupboard but it nearly decapitated me yesterday. Fix it before I get home, please.

[Warded to Seamus]
Princess, I haven't seen you in forever and I am beginning to pout about it. We need to fix this now.

Switch to some real reporting, like sports. You'll be happier.

You know I'm kidding, love. I'm sorry your editor is terrible. Has the cow Rita tried to inject herself into your stories yet? You'd think she stay away from sports, but I swear, just because it's MY NAME on the byline, she has to try to fit something in.

Tell me honestly: Is there a pool going around about how long it'll take me to hex her?

Pcha, yeah "sports" such journalism. Great for lining bins with.

[Warded to Ginny]
I don't even know how Rita does it? She doesn't even bloody work for us anymore! But yes, every now and then she tries to stick her hand down my pants and ask if I want to share a byline "and maybe something more intimate" and I have to stop myself from throwing up.

What a silly question, Spike. I could never possibly reveal something like that. But if you were to perhaps hex her by the seventeenth of September I wouldn't be unhappy.

	If only people stopped going to games and, you know, caring. Then you might be on to something. Dennis She always wants to do joint interviews with me, or she'll come right out and ask what I'll be writing about this week to 'jazz' the game up. Talk about someone without a clue. I think I can work with that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

Alright alright, I admit it I like the game coverage as much as the next bloke. The Appleby lads and lasses are going all the way this year!

Word to the wise, that green quill of hers doesn't write what you say. A friend of mine over on the international desk learnt that the hard way before they finally banned the she-witch.

You should totally use that bogie curse of yours on her. Plenty of witnesses would testify that she made it up, and let's be honest it's the witch that cried dragon that gets eaten.
