Letter #188 -- Where's that list?

Today, write a letter to someone on your "dinner party list."

Have you ever seen those things that go around in e-mail, on blogs or on Facebook, where you're supposed to list off the 10 people -- usually living, dead, real or fictional -- that you'd like to invited to a fantasy dinner party?

If you've ever thought about such things, today, choose a name from that list and write that person a letter. Now, you'll be in a tough spot about mailing it if your list is full of people who are either fictional or no longer living. But, in that case, you can just turn your letter into an essay, maybe even sell it to a magazine.
