Daniel Handler

Daniel Handler on who he reads, how he writes, where he writes, and a few extra things too.

As children's book author Lemony Snicket, Handler is best known for A Series of Unfortunate Events. We Are Pirates is his new novel for adults, and it's this month's book club pick. 

Mystery writer Daniel Handler -- also known as Lemony Snicket – shares three songs inspired by his new book, called Who Could That Be At This Hour?

Drawing on their own experiences with heartbreak, writer Daniel Handler (aka Lemony Snicket) joins forces with illustrator Maira Kalman on his new novel for young adults, Why We Broke Up (Little, Brown Books for Young Readers, 2011) and the accompanying website project.  The story is told through the objects -- a matchbox, a movie poster, a pennant -- left behind after the couple parted.  What mementos of past loves have you kept?
