FASHIONABLY UNDEAD A Twitter Audio Project

Meg Cabot and 50 Twitter followers collaborated to create an enchanting zombie tale set in the upper echelons of the fashion industry. Sarah Drew shines as Carly, a fashion-house drone who is happily surprised to receive a mysterious text from the new hot guy at work. But she soon wishes she’d never replied when Jake pulls her into a fight with some undead models. Drew does a wonderful job relaying Carly’s bewilderment, Jake’s bravado, and coworker Joyce’s sassy Southern charisma as photo shoots and runway shows become opportunities to bring down the legendary Zombie Queen. Concise and utterly charming, Cabot’s breezy story brings a bright spot to a generally dark genre. J.M. 2011 Audies Finalist © AudioFile 2011, Portland, Maine [Published: APRIL 2011]
