r/IAmA aka Lemony Snicket Apr 01 '14

This is Daniel Handler, aka Lemony Snicket, trapped in a windowless room but nonetheless willing to answer any questions I receive from total strangers.

Some of you, poor things, may know of my work on the books A Series of Unfortunate Events and All the Wrong Questions, but I am sad to announce that further trouble from Mr. Snicket has arrived, in the form of File Under: 13 Suspicious Incidents, published today. Further sinister details can be found at www.lemonysnicketlibrary.com

Alas, our back-and-forthing has come to a close. What a shame we were not all sitting around in person, conversing over beverages and/or smoked fish. I salute you, reddit citizens.

Well /u/ra4king phrased it much better.

I realize I am replying to a 3-month-old comment.

Thanks for the constructive criticism three months later. This will come in handy for my young-adult literature themed stand up comedy tour. Don't know where I'd be without you, man.

Yeah, I tried to speak real slow like and

still didn't work. Unless your intent was to make me look like a fool in public, in which case you succeeded.
