It would definitely be John Greene.
I love his book a little bit too much

Though, I would have love to choose more than one author. But if I'm to only mention just one, then I'll go for my home-based Nobel Lauret - Wole Soyinka

I would love to drink with Sophie Kinsella, since I love most of her books!

Malcom Gladwell. I love the research he shares that sheds light on new perspectives about how life really works as well as providing distinctions of successful living.

Hemingway would probably be a great company since alcohol was in his everyday routine and he was probably getting some inspiration from it; the point however would be to limit yourself to a glass or two in order to manage to keep notes of what he is saying.

I would absolutely love to sit down and have a beer with Brandon Sanderson. His mind is incredible and I have so many questions about the Cosmere.

Tolkien of course is a huge favorite. A dream to pick the mind of the creator of an entire world, languages, cultures and characters that live on fully everyday.

Another favorite would be Rick Riordan as he seems full of adventure and fun! 🤩

James Patterson! He for certain would be who I had a beer and a conversation with. I'd ask him what influenced the quick chapter flip method. It's truly an ingenious strategy. I'd also have to ask, "How does it feel to know that millions of people, not only read your books but love so much of what write? ". I can only image the way he'd articulate the surge of energy that expands his confidence, yet is able to maintain great humility.

I'd also like to have a drink with Hemingway. Did you know that he had a special drink?

Hemingway's special daiquiri, lots of rum and no sugar :)

I would love to have a beer with Wright Morris if he were still alive. I love his dry wit and unexpected phrasing and his subject matter. It seems nothing much happens in his books, yet everything important does happen
