Tag: Katana Sword

Pride and Prejudice and Zombies: Dawn of the Dreadfuls press kit prep!

by Danielle
Fiction / March 10, 2010

I thought it might be fun to blog about how I whipped up the press kit for PRIDE AND PREJUDICE AND ZOMBIES: DAWN OF THE DREADFULS. I came up with the idea of using a Katana Sword on the cover because it seems that this is one of Elizabeth's weapons of choice, and quite frankly was racking my brain on what to do. I used watercolor crayons to color the cover and with help from my very nice co-workers 41 kits were made for the media. I took the original and color copied it. Then wrapped the book in red paper, covered it with the katana cover then finished off with a red ribbon. Took a while but here is what came of it!! Phew!! All done, till the next one!

And if you are a media contact who for some reason didn't get a a copy, please cotact me and I'll send one off. Please note I just sent these March 10.
