I'm finally getting the hang of this Tumblr thing so how about an intro post:

Hi, I'm Lindsay 👋 she/her

Then: I was a kid in the '80s and a teen in the '90s. I watched Nickelodeon, the Disney Afternoon and Cartoon Network, and wrote fanfiction and RPGs about it with my friends in a spiral notebook. 😆 I studied English and art in college and love to write and draw.

Now: I do communications and social media for a large U.S. retail company. Wish I had more free time to write and create for fun. My goal is to carve some time out soon to start making and posting my own stuff again. Until then, exploring your creations brings me lots of joy.

First fandom: Mystery Science Theater 3000

Current obsession: Discworld! I finally read my first of The Watch series and now going down a huuuge rabbit hole. #VetinariforPresident2024

I'm making a new Monster of the Week character, & frankly, this guy is gonna be so much fun. I wish I wrote for TV, cos this guy needs his own sitcom parody series. I know a lot of these characters are unfamiliar, so here's the rundown & what they all have in common with Mr. Harrison, but please, just Harrison is fine. George Costanza from Seinfeld is a fairly obvious influence. At first glance, Harrison is kind of a schlep. But he's passionate & boisterous in spite of his...natural charisma. Jay Sherman (The Critic), another put-upon everyman. Much like Jay, Harrison considera himself a man of taste, & he knows his way around a significant amount of films, tv series & the like, surprising & delighting his English students. Harrison would likely watch Hannibal, which is where our next inspiration comes from. Harrison loves a good mystery, & detectives like Will who see every angle are his favourite. More on this later. This one's a little obscure. I chose Lorenzo Music as a voiceclaim, as I like to challenge myself to do a various range of voices for my RPG characters. I studied his performance as Carlton, your doorman in Rhoda & his own animated TV pilot. Even though Harrison is totally sober in class, I'm going to use Carlton's drunken delivery as a jumping off point for Harrison's character voice. I think it'll be an interesting compliment to his demeanor while also contrasting his surprisingly high energy. Dick Tracy, another man of the law Harrisonis just crazy over. He likes to wear big trenchcoats and a dramatic fedora as he roams the streets on weekends. Walter Mitty & Harrison are both escapists. Harrison likes to imagine himself as the star of his own film noir story. Hercule Poirot is Harrison's biggest hero. Man loves Agatha Christie & wishes he could teach her books. Cornfed from Duckman is so dang serious he comes back around to being funny, & the most entertaining flaw of Harrison's is how self-assured he is of his deductive prowess. He sure wishes he were Cornfed. And lastly, to hammer home his oddly specific expanse of knowledge & status as a walking joke, Harrison has a lot in common with Cliff Clavin from Cheers. https://www.instagram.com/p/B2IMhhmHmY9/?igshid=1f7dct2s06wci
