Which author would you love to have dinner with?
Stephen King.
I have loved his work since I was about 12 and read Pet Cemetary for the first time. His way of writing and telling a story is such an art form, and I would love to be able to ask more about his entire process and how he writes such timeless stories. It was his work that got me into reading fully, and I hope to one day be as good a writer as he is in my own creative writing projects.
