Everyday Canvas

And to Dine with...

Prompt: Dinner with Queen Elizabeth or Stephen King. Which one would you enjoy dining with and why? You can only ask one personal question, what’s it going to be?

----------

Stephen King, hands down.

Queen Elizabeth, too much pomp and circumstance.

Stephen King, literature, writing, and especially because I read his book, On Writing.

I would enjoy dining with him or just sitting around chewing the fat. I am sure I’ll learn a thing or two. After all, this is the author who said, “Books are uniquely portable magic” and “Writing is seduction.”

As to asking a question, I really don’t like to ask personal questions to anyone, unless I know them very well and I know they won’t be offended. Since I don’t know Stephen King personally, I am going to ask him this:

“In a Paris Review Interview, you mentioned a huge St. Bernard scared you, which led to your book Cujo. What else scares you that you haven’t written about, yet?”
