Party help and promotional stuff

[valarltd]

So, MidSouth is in a month.

I am having a book premiere party. Said book is gay and piratey.

Am at odds with current promo material.
Matchbooks? Bookmarks? Definitely newsletters.

****
Current menu plan:
cannon balls (chocolate cake mixed with nutella and rolled in chocolate jimmies)
a veggie tray, with palm-tree centerpiece
a cake with the book cover on it.

Golden punch (nonalcoholic)
A rum punch

Any suggstions here?

As a doorprize, I am giving away a CD copy of the novel.

Should I have a couple of other doorprizes?

****

Current decor is heavy on the beads and coins, (for giving away) and the food. We can't do much as we just have a room and not a suite. I have a ship and treasure chest cutouts.

I have a Jack Sparrow Skull.

Anyone have a life-size skeleton they could let me borrow? I can get a palm tree.

Any suggestions here?

Well that sounds pretty good to me. The only punch type thing I know of is made with lime sherbet and ginger-ale, sweet but pretty good.

I like the matchbook idea, I don't think I've seen anything like that.

How about a pirate headscarf as a door prize, shouldn't be too hard to find a black one with a skull and crossed bones on it
