Okay, so here's how this is going to work... If you know of any friends of Lemony that he has mentioned... Post them here... The rules are:
1. Use correct grammar...
2. Don't post a name if you don't have a page number and book it came from...
3. Don't lie...
Firends I found are:
A sculptor name Tatiana, who made a sculpture called Twisted, Cracked, and Hopelessly Broken" (Page 74 of The Miserable Mill, Name revealed on page 100)
A snakecharmer in Egypt (Page 26 of The Wide Window)
A specialist, named Gina-Sue (Page 65 of The Wide Window)
A man named Dr. Lorenz, who explains the scientific principles of convergence to Lemony (Page 179 of The Wide Window)
A man named Prefessor Reed, who made a triptych for him (Page 55 of The Austere Academy)

Really? I didn't know that it said C.M. Kornbluth was a friend of LS... Still, if you can find the first page it mentions it...

Do "aquaintances" count?
If so:
TSS p.1: refers to Robert Frost.
TSS p.192: C.M. Kornbluth.
TCC p.253: Olivia (not where she's first introduced, but it's the first time he said she was his "former associate"), also known as Madame Lulu (first appeared p.26 of TCC)
TUA p.55: Dr. Gustav Sebald (creator of the Sebald Code)

So sorry to not have the page number Jerome, but I listened to an audio of the RR from the library, but I think it's the beginning of chapter 3 that he tells about Madam Delustro who gets mad if u arrive five minutes late for a party.

Oh! I just remembered more.  TUA p.25 0r 30, depending on who's perspective you want: R (Duchess of Winnipeg) TUA p.131: (Ms.) K (possibly. She lists ASOUE as required reading for her students, so she either knows Lemony personally or just by the books.) |

K is Lemony's sister, so I'm pretty sure she's a friend.  Daniel Handler's a friend too.  |

Found another one:
TSS p.333- the skeleton expert he goes to to determine if bones he's found are the bones of the white-faced women.

No, sorry. But he did say she was a she.
Also, on page 335 in TSS, he says that Algernon Charles Swinburne was an associate of his (Swinburne was the one who wrote The Garden of Proserpine, remember?).

Is that bad? If everything is connected, then all we have to do is find the connections and things will, hopefully, become more clear. |

Daniel Handler's a friend too.
