I don't know what came over me. I was looking at my A Series of Unfortunate Events 2005 Calendar, and I realized how sad I was that 2005 was ending--not because it was such a fabulous year, but because the calendar was just that cool.

And I realized: if I love the calendar so much, why don't I make a design centered around my favorite stylized illustrators? It was tough, choosing between Edward Gorey and Lemony Snicket. But in the end, I decided to go with the reclusive man whose house I never got a chance to see when I lived on the East Coast. It is my uneducated opinion that Edward Gorey influenced Lemony Snicket's illustrations anyway, and so the choice ended up not being as tough as previously believed.
