Dorothy Parker. Probably more like a Manhattan.

Probably Suzanne Collins or Stephenie Meyer they both seem pretty fun.

omg... sitting down for a bourbon, some hot wings, and hilarious conversation ??? I would pick the author Shelly Laurenston/ G.A. Aiken... her writing is steamy, plus always humorous... I tend to laugh out loud every time... having a conversation would have to be a laugh riot... plus I love the books :P

Ian Fleming. Although it would have to be a vodka martini. Shaken, not stirred. With so much of his life story reading like one of his James Bond novels, it would be interesting to hear him tell of the differences and similarities between his life as a British naval intelligence officer and the life of the super-spy he created.

I know my choice will sound weird but I'd really love to sit down and have lunch with at least one the Bible's authors. I'd have so many questions to ask them, both personal and general. That's it. :)

Definitely Dean Koontz. He really got me into reading. I'd love to know where he find all his inspiration as his characters and storylines are just above and beyond!

There are several authors that I would not mind meeting whether it is for a beer or lunch. Base on the primary question, I would not mind having a beer or few with Mick Foley. I know that he is more known for his wrestling antics but he has written several books which include autobiographies and children books. I find Mick Foley to be entertaining because he wants to be entertaining to please the audience. He seems to fully understand what it means to be successful and it is the audience that determines that. It would be interesting to hear his opinion on this or what he believes to be the key to success.

Stephen King... love to pick that man's brain and how he creates his stories. The Stand is an all time favorite. Would love to know how it came to be.

I would definetley love to have a beer with E.L. James, so she could tell me all about the dream she had, because that is where her concept ofFifty Shades of Grey came from.

Oh really? I did not know that! :O Interesting. There's a popular Quebecer (from Canada) author that has had her series in a dream too. It happens to me a few times with my stories as well.
