We would also like to request that our valuable and much loved readers drop by "The Hogwarts Monthly Magazine Office" to cheer us up so that we can engage in conversation about anything under the sun or receive your feedback on our magazine while you sip our best-brewed warm coffee. Any feedback left by our valuable readers is of the utmost importance to us.

One of us will certainly be present in our office to welcome you as soon as you arrive. There is no Fidelius Charm on our little, comfortable location, and our doors are always left wide open for you to enter.

The Hogwarts Monthly Magazine is published on the last day of every month with the latest, juiciest details and also some fun and entertainment. In the pages of this magazine every month, there is a riddle to solve that gives you an opportunity to earn five Knuts, a free advertising opportunity, and a special mention of your name in the next issue; a section on the important celestial events of the month with a glimpse into the same for the next month; a special topic; general news; and more.

The cost of advertising anything in this magazine is one Knut per advertisement.

With that, we would like to sign off for this month. We look forward to your continued support as our beloved readers while we wait to present you with our next issue on the last day of December. Until then, have a great winter month, and here's hoping that all of you enjoy the snowball fights and have a very Merry Christmas.

Thank you for reading our magazine. Please read our "A Note of Thanks" to you.
