Lemony Snicket
Lemony Snicket Teachingbooks.net Original In-depth Author Interview Lemony Snicket, interviewed in San Francisco, California on March 26, 2012. TEACHINGBOOKS: Who is Lemony Snicket? LEMONY SNICKET: I am Lemony Snicket. I am the author of a great number of books, and I recommend none of them. TEACHINGBOOKS: Why did you write the series of books called A Series of Unfortunate Events? LEMONY SNICKET: Once I was in the library and I was looking at all the books that were on the shelf, and there were no books that were written about the Baudelaire orphans. There were no books that were written about Violet, Klaus, and Sunny, and the terrible fire that consumed their home and the dreadful man, Count Olaf, with whom they were forced to live, and all of the terrible things that kept happening over and over again. So it was a void that I sensed on the shelf, and I thought I would fill it. TEACHINGBOOKS: Had you written books before? LEMONY SNICKET: I was always interested in writing, and so even when I was child I wrote small things on folded-up pieces of paper that were occasionally stapled together. Whether that's a book or not, I feel, is a long debate. Some people say, yes, of course, that counts as a book. Other people say, no, don't be ridiculous, that doesn't count as a book. And other people say, why are you bothering me? Why are you coming to me with this question about pieces of paper stapled together? Don't you have something better to do with your time? TEACHINGBOOKS: How would you describe your books? LEMONY SNICKET: If I had to sum up all of my work in a single word, I think the word would be “egad.” “Egad” is a four-letter word, but you're allowed to use it. -
Brett Helquist Alumni Lecture
Brett Helquist Alumni Lecture Madsen Recital Hall 16 October 2014 Introduction by Robert Barrett It’s a pleasure for me to be here today, and to introduce the college’s distinguished speaker. Brett is a former student of mine; I’ve been here long enough now that I have lots and lots of former students. It’s nice to have Mary Jane, his wife, here as well. She is also a former student. Brett made the statement in an interview at one time, “In some ways, I’m in a profession that allows you not to completely grow up.” Brett Helquist didn’t start seriously doodling until college, but his illustrations for Lemony Snicket’s outrageously popular Series of Unfortunate Events books have made him into something of a rock star in the world of children’s literature. A 1993 graduate of Brigham Young University, Brett Helquist has produced a large body of published work in the editorial and especially children’s book markets. In addition to his well known Lemony Snicket Unfortunate books, he has created illustrations for dozens of children’s and young adult’s books including: Chasing Vermeer, Captain Hook: Adventures of Notorious Youth, Listening for Lions, and The Spoon in the Bathroom Wall. He has illustrated other series such as The Vengekeep Prophecies and The League of Seven. He has also written and illustrated a few books including: Roger, The Jolly Pirate, Bedtime for Bear, and Grumpy Goat. Speaking of rock stars, I remember a field trip that we took when Brett was still a student here. -
Daniel Handler Bestselling Author (A.K.A Lemony Snicket)
12 Western Avenue, Petaluma, CA 94952 tel: 707.773.0654 fax: 707.778.1868 www.barclayagency.com Daniel Handler Bestselling Author (A.K.A Lemony Snicket) Daniel Handler’s next novel for adults is “Daniel Handler [is] something the highly-anticipated We Are Pirates, which like an American Nabokov.” — Dave Eggers Bloomsbury will publish in February, and Neil Gaiman says is, “Honest and funny, dark and painful. We Are Pirates reads like the result of a nightmarish mating experiment between Joseph Heller and Captain Jack Sparrow. It’s the strangest, most brilliant offering yet from the mind behind Lemony Snicket.” Daniel Handler is also the author of the Photo: Meredith Heuer novels The Basic Eight, Watch Your Mouth, Adverbs, and, with Maira Kalman, Why We Broke Up, which won the Michael J. Printz Honor. He also worked with Kalman on the book Girls Standing on Lawns and Hurry Up and Wait (May 2015). “One of our most dazzling As Lemony Snicket, he has written the best-selling series All The Wrong Questions as well as A Series of literary conjurers shuffles the deck of contemporary Unfortunate Events, which has sold more than 60 million copies, was the basis of a feature film starring consciousness and desire.” Jim Carrey and Meryl Streep, with Jude Law as Lemony Snicket, and is being developed for television. —Michael Chabon Snicket is also the creator of several picture books, including the Charlotte Zolotow Award-winning The Dark, illustrated by Jon Klassen. His newest picture book is 29 Myths on the Swinster Pharmacy illustrated by Lisa Brown. -
