Question: What is the real name of the author who wrote "The Bad Beginning" and several other novels in the same series?

<P0-S0> Georgia "George" Fayne is a character in the popular "Nancy Drew Mystery Stories" series. <P0-S1>  She is one of Nancy's best friends and cousin of Bess Marvin. <P0-S2>  Her real name is Georgia, although no one calls her that except her parents. <P0-S3>  (This is a change made in the 1980s; one volume, "The Clue in the Old Stagecoach" in 1960, mentioned her real name as Georgia on the title page, but this was altered after the first few printings. <P0-S4>  In the original novels her name was just George, named for her grandfather, with, depending on the ghostwriter, a chain of either boys or girls ahead of her.) <P0-S5>  She has short black hair and brown eyes. <P0-S6>  She is an athletic tomboy, and is not easily scared when involved in Nancy's sleuthing. <P0-S7>  Her boyfriend is first a friend of Ned Nickerson's named Buck Rodman; she later dates Burt Eddleton. <P0-S8>  Bess and she were introduced to readers in "The Secret at Shadow Ranch". <P0-S9>  In the "Nancy Drew Girl Detective Series", she has a little brother named Scott. <P0-S10>  In the original version of "The Ringmaster's Secret", she has a nephew, indicating there are other siblings. <P0-S11>  A change in ghostwriters in 1933 resulted in George and her cousin Bess both being indicated as only children; their siblings, if there are any, are omitted from a will where their names are read. <P0-S12>  This can be explained in the text by assumption that they were the only children of their mothers known to their benefactor personally ("The Sign of the Twisted Candles"). <P0-S13>  With Nancy, George and Bess encountered an elderly man who was a distant relation, and showed friendliness and compassion toward him. <P0-S14>  As such, they may have been named; it was an oddity in the series. <SEP> <P1-S0> All the Wrong Questions is a four-part young adult book series and prequel to "A Series of Unfortunate Events" by Lemony Snicket (the pen name of American author Daniel Handler). <P1-S1>  The series explores Snicket's childhood apprenticeship to the secret society V.F.D and expands the fictional universe introduced in the novel "The Bad Beginning", the first of thirteen installments in the "A Series of Unfortunate Events" books. <SEP> <P2-S0>  The books follow the turbulent lives of Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire. <P2-S1>  After their parents' death in a fire, the children are placed in the custody of a murderous relative, Count Olaf, who attempts to steal their inheritance and, later, orchestrates numerous disasters with the help of his accomplices as the children attempt to flee. <P2-S2> A Series of Unfortunate Events is a series of thirteen children's novels by Lemony Snicket, the pen name of American author Daniel Handler. <P2-S3>  As the plot progresses, the Baudelaires gradually confront further mysteries surrounding their family and deep conspiracies involving a secret society known as V.F.D., with connections to both Olaf and their parents. <P2-S4>  The series is narrated by Snicket, who dedicates each of his works to his deceased love interest, Beatrice, and often attempts to dissuade the reader from continuing to read the Baudelaires' story. <SEP> <P3-S0>  The novel tells the story of three children, Violet, Klaus, and Sunny Baudelaire, who become orphans following a fire and are sent to live with Count Olaf, who attempts to steal their inheritance. <P3-S1> The Bad Beginning is the first novel of the children's novel series "A Series of Unfortunate Events" by Lemony Snicket.
