If I Could Invite Four Writers to a Dinner Party...

8/19/2015

I had a flight of fancy this evening and I didn't even have to go through Security or pay to check my bags.  Anyway, my fantasy involved food, famous chefs, and of course, booze.  Lots of booze. Which writers would I invite?  All writers would show up in their prime (sharing a table with a dead person isn't part of the fantasy).  Who would I choose?

Here's my overachieving week of dinner parties.


Monday Night:  Let’s see what happens!
 Catered by Iron Chief Bobby Flay (Food Network)
    Chuck Wendig
    Robert Sawyer
    Phillip K. Dick
    Jon Stewart

Tuesday Night:  A Comfortably Creative Evening
  Catered by Iron Chef Alex Guarnaschelli (Food Network)
    Anne McCaffery
    Elizabeth Hand
    Julie Czerneda
    Alice B. Sheldon (James Tiptree, Jr.)

Wednesday Night:  A Perfect Fairy Tale Evening
  Catered by Iron Chef Jeffery Zakarian
    Kate Bernheimer
    Maria Tartar
    Robin McKinley
    William Goldman

Thursday Night: Interesting and Varied Conversations
  Catered by Iron Chef Michael Symon
   Stephen King
   Cordwainer Smith (Paul Linebarger)
   L. Sprague deCamp
   Nora Roberts

Friday night:  Just a hoot!
  Catered by Guy Fieri (Food Network, Diners Drive-ins and Dives)
   Terry Pratchett
   Neil Gaiman
   Connie Willis
   Tanya Huff

Well, that's my week.  Who would you like to hang with for an evening?
