How can I fix migrating error while creating a database in models.py in Django?

I've started to learn Django using the No starch Python Crash Course. While going through the steps to code the 'entries', I cannot migrate the database. The error is shown. I'm using python 3.7 and Django 2.0.7

I've tried using python 3.6 but its still not working

    Traceback (most recent call last):

change this line in your model Entry

topic =  models.ForeignKey(Topic)

to 

topic =  models.ForeignKey(Topic,on_delete=models.CASCADE)
