The idea for the recently submitted challenge was because of my reading Libba Bray's Rebel Angels. In the back of the book she is put through a scrutinizing Question and Answer section. One of the questions was: If you could invite five people in the world, dead or alive, to a party, who would you invite? So, it was not soully my own idea...I just thought it'd be fun to see how such a party would play out, depending on different people!!
My list of guests would be:
-Vlad 'Tepes' Dracula
Insane, perhaps, but meet him I must.
-Jesus Christ
I need to ask him a few questions. You know, sort a few things out.
-Mark Twain/Andrew Clement
An epic writer. I want to meet the man being the literature!
-Ghandi
His ideas on life were interesting, in the least. I should like to talk to the guy face-to-face.
-Edgar Allen Poe
Perhaps this is more for Vlad's benefit than mine. No, I actualy want to meet the kind of person it takes to write those type of poems.
I considered three other candidates, but alas, there was room for only five: Ellen DeGeneres would probably get impaled by Vlad, Michalangelo would probably talk too cryptically, and the real reason I would actually invite Julius Caeser would be to kick his butt out the door again.
Perhaps I will post what would happen with a party with me and them, like with the challenge for Comics....
Maybe...just maybe. :) It's definitely be a party to remember!
