I would most like to have lunch with Stephen King, he says he loves scaring the hell out of people and he does that quite well. Loved "The Shining," "It" and "1408." I am a recovered alcoholic also. That takes strength and courage, believe me.I guess my question would be: "What sort of person do you think you are?"

I'd like to have a meal with J.K. Rowling, but I have no idea what I'd ask her, because she's already said all she's going to say about Harry Potter et al. I could simply let her know how much I enjoyed her books and how skillfully I think she has drawn word pictures so that the movies showed exactly what I thought they would.
Or, I could have lunch with Stephen King and ask him why his wife's books are so hard to find. I've read a couple, and she's really a good author, but she's been seriously overshadowed by him.

I'd like to make love to J.K. Rowling and hit Stephen King for not turning out good novels any more.

J.D. Salinger after all he admitted Holden Caldwell of Catcher in the Rye is a bio of himself. I'm lucky enough to have read and liked his work and wouldn't have a problem coming up with questions.
I am pretty certain he has been writing all the years he has been a recluse.
I'd rather talk about his life and experiences that enabled him to draw his characters.
I'd ask him he is going to allow a movie to finally be made of CAtcher in the Rye. Toss in there Johnny Depp is weird enough that you could collaborate on producing the movie. Going to plan my questions now. You never know when a miracle will occur.

No question it would be Stephen King. I saw a special on TV several years ago and he said he always kept a pencil and paper beside his bed and he would wake up and jot down his dreams. I wish I had thought of that as My dreams are very vivid at the time but soon forgotten upon waking. I would like to ask him if his fame and success have changed him personally.

stephen king, most definitely! My first son was named after him as I was mesmerized by his books then, while I don't think he is as a good of an author as I once did, I am impressed with all he has done, movies etc. When will you retire? or will you keep writing books and making movies for as long as you can? would be one of the questions I would ask.

Stephen King.
I would want to know just how he gets the ideas that turn into the stories for his books. The process he goes through developing his plot lines.

I'd choose JD Salinger to have lunch with. My questions to him would be related to WWll. I''d like to hear his impression of the liberated concentration camps he visited. He never completely recovered from this experience and it influenced his writing henceforth.
