A Gamble of Paintings and Poison (Fantasy Audio Drama)
starleeter for Maggie Darrow
Magdalyn Rose Darrow is a 20 year old college student and the central character of this novel. She is introverted, artistic, and has a dry, self-deprecating sense of humor. She is nothing special, and she knows it. Maggie tends to keep to herself, but is able to be immature and silly around those she's formed a bond with. As far as a voice I have in mind, something more in an alto range, like Veronica Sawyer from Heathers. (Update: Especially considering how deep a voice our lovely Kindle has. As the main pair of the project they do a lot of interacting, and it's important that their voices are pleasing to listen to when conversing.) Important to keep in mind: As the main character, Maggie has a disproportionately large amount of lines. You will need to be willing to be on board for all three books, and act thousands of words worth of narration. If I like your audition and am considering you for the role, I will PM you to do a test reading of about half a chapter.
(Narrating) Sometimes I wished I had hair like hers, all shiny and slick and manageable. My natural blonde was such a sandy, dull shade, and the waves made it impossible to deal with in humidity. I wasn't brave enough to dye it, so I settled for being jealous and whiny— I had a lot of practice with that.
(Overdramatic and joking.) "No, you're actually the worst. You have broken my heart. You dangled the string of hope in my face, only to yank it back and look on, uncaring, as I suffer.”
(Angry, loud) "Ridiculous? This woman claims to be a mermaid and I'm somehow the ridiculous one?"
