Zombie Swap! (Int'l)

The ZOMBIE swap is a way to express your own thoughts and feelings on surviving the Zombie Wars (see Max Brooks' books, or similar zombie survival memorabilia, books, movies, etc).

Where were you the first time you saw a zombie? Is it too difficult to express into words? Perhaps you need a drawing, or perhaps you've crafted some memorabilia to honor your days as a survivor? Do you have an exciting on-the-scenes recording from when Zack burst through your apartment door during a podcast? Do you remember the day LiveJournal was flooded with reports of zombies everywhere? Have you seen the San Francisco zombies lurching through downtown?

You will send (at least) one personalized memento of the Zombie War to each of your swap partners. The memento may be hand made in whole or in part, and you can bend your creativity to this subject matter in many wonderful ways (yes, I think Zombie ATCs would be completely awesome!)

If it's a store bought item (within the $5-10 range), please include a personal letter to explain why it reminds you of your zombie survival days. If the item can be easily duplicated without loss of quality, you are welcome to send the same item to each partner.

Newbies are welcome to join this swap with a complete profile and after PMing the hostess first. You can do that by clicking the "Contact" link next to her name. The hostess is a newbie herself, and wants to be open to well-meaning newbies.

Angels are also very much welcome to volunteer. The swap host will not be able to angel everyone, so please consider volunteering if this swap gives you a lot of great ideas.

This is an international swap, since you can scale your memorabilia to match the postage cost. The zombies were everywhere.
