Four Crime Writers You Would like To Have Drinks and Dinner With

[Kent Morgan]

Over on a journalists list that I belong to, there's a thread going about which four jourmalists, living or dead, you would like to have dinner with. Thought it might be fun to see which crime writers list members would choose. I haven't given it much thought, but I'll start with Randy Wayne White, David Peace, Cornelia Read and John Sandford.

[Cyndi Martin]

I would love to meet all of you, Dick Francis, Sue Grafton, & Janet Evanovich.

[Jacki]

I will have to get out my Ouji Board for this one one because I would love to meet Dame Agatha Christie, Sir Arthur Conan Doyle , Edgar Allan Poe and to keep all these Spirits in check Kerry Greenwood.

I just noticed this thread.

I would like to have drinks with Edgar Allen Poe, Gregg Loomis, JA Konrath, and Dashiell Hammett....or Mickey Spillane....dangit, its not fair.....

I would also like to meet the writers here as well, as most, if not all, of you seem very nice, cordial, and can probably throw back a few!...

[Mary Reagan]

So, do the folks you already had drinks with not count?

[Jana Oliver]

Edgar Allan Poe, Ian Rankin, Anne Perry & just for the heck of it, Arthur Conan Doyle.

[Dana King]

Dead or alive? Mickey Spillane, Ed McBain, Dennis Lehane, and John Connolly. If they have to be alive, substitute Carl Hiaasen and Connie Fletcher.
