Going first is the mega worst because I’m generally left to come up with my thoughts on super short notice and I am the sort of person to obsess over whether I said the right thing and inevitably change my mind 16 more times.
That’s my way of apologizing for this video and also all the videos. I need more days to think. I always need more days. Then there aren’t more days and I am left to nervously stand in front of a camera thinking about the thing and then I edit the video and say, “WRONG! ALL WRONG!” but it’s 2am and I have to edit it and go to bed so I can be a person the next day.
And that is my life.
I’m done now. Here is the video:
As mentioned in the video, this is the other video where I talk a lot about His Dark Materials. It’s actually random (spoiler-free!) thoughts on the whole series and I don’t get to Lyra and Will until the final minute or so. Fun fact: talking about my favorite characters was actually basically the prompt then too. Oops.
What are your favorite characters? Whenever we do get around to more specific subcategories of this question, what do you think we should start with?
Nicole is the co-captain of Snark Squad and these days she spends most of her time editing podcasts. She spends too much time on Twitter and very occasionally vlogs and blogs. In her day job she's a producer, editor, director, and sometimes host of educational YouTube channels. She loves travel, maps, panda gifs, and semicolons. Writing biographies stresses her out; she crowd sourced this one years ago and has been using a version of it ever since. She would like to thank Twitter for their help.
