Curious that there's no link to the actual AMA page, which doesn't appear to exist yet, but instead to a broader hub. I'll try and set up a 667 Reddit account later to forward 667ers' messages. For now, thank you for bringing this to the forum's attention, Q.R.V.!

Yeah, Reddit AMA threads are posted by the person answering questions at the scheduled time due to the nature of the site.
Answering usually tends to only go on for a couple hours, and which questions get seen are at the whims of the site's voting system/users, but hopefully there will be some interesting ones!

Thanks for the advice, crono288. We're now ready. 667 Dark Avenue now has a Reddit account, and will be directing questions from this thread straight to the AMA as soon as it's up! Q.R.V., please excuse me for editing your post to reflect this fact (whichever of us gets there first can also add the official AMA link when it goes up).

Okay.
1. Is anyone in ATWQ going to die?
2. What is standing behind you? Ha! April Fools.
3. What happened to Elington's mother?
4. If there's nothing out there, what was that noise?

Good questions, Duchess. We already know a little about one of them, but that makes it all the more likely that we'll get a good answer.

Maybe it IS an April fools joke and he'll answer everything with "that's the wrong question."

I have a question I would like to ask, as a result of my reading of WDYSHL Chapter 12, but it wouldn't be polite: viz. 'Do you think it was a good idea to send Pip and Squeak up the tower of a collapsing building?'. (Fortunately there is an episode of FU13, clearly set after this, in which they appear.)
OK, how will this do? 'Did you meet many people in Stain'd who would turn up again later in your life?'. (That's not terribly well-expressed; feel free to modify if you can think of a better way of putting it.)

I was considering a question of that sort myself. Good choice, Hermes. Although I wouldn't be shy about the Pip and Squeak question, either; I think he'd appreciate it.

My goodness! I've got tons of questions....sadly they will all get cryptic answers though.
Let's see;
1 Who was the women that climbed up,the grotto to the Queequeg?
2 How on Earth could a banker think J. S. stood for Geraldine Julienne?
3 What stained the jacket?
4 Who is the principle of Prufrock?
5 Did Miss Tench die?
6 Has Mrs Bass been released from prison for her crime of robbery?
7 What's 'in' right now?
8 Was the Snicket lad actually taken beneath a moon of grey?
9 Where is the Paltryville flagpole boot now?
the answer for all these will be; what do YOU think?

OK, put the P and S question in as well.

What is your (Mr. Snicket's) middle initial?
Also I'm sure it'll get asked but might as well thrown in a "What does the "S" stand for?"

I've been wondering what questions I should ask... maybe publishing-relevant ones?
-Do you know when We Are Pirates is likely to be published?
-I really enjoyed File Under: 13 Suspicious Incidents; do you want to write any further ATWQ supplements?
-How far in advance of its publication date do you have each book written?
-Do you have any plans for Mr. Snicket after All the Wrong Questions?
