Thanksgiving PRIZE GIVEAWAY!

Are you up for a challenge? And no, you don't have to eat more pumpkin pie than your brother...

Norman Rockwell's The Four Freedoms: Freedom From Want

The holiday season is here; perfect time to put on those listening ears! As my Kindergarten teacher, Mrs. Kruger used to say.

This Thursday, many of you will be sitting around the table in a post-turkey food coma, sipping coffee and reminiscing about the Good Ol 'Days.

Don't let those cherished memories drift into the cinnamon-and-nutmeg-scented ether of Grandma's kitchen! Whip out your laptop, or better yet, your video camera* and lock that precious tale into history!! Don't be selfish and hog it all to yourself! You might be sick of Grandpa Fred's retelling of when the Johnson's barn burnt down and all that was left were the bones of a '42 Oldsmobile, but we've never heard that story before, and we would LOVE it! So would your cousin in Cincinnati or your aunt in Omaha, who couldn't make it back home for Thanksgiving.

Our challenge to you, our readers, is TEN new stories over Thanksgiving weekend! That will be enough to post ONE story per day until Sunday, December 4. What do you say? Are you up for it?

To further sweeten the pot, as they say, we'll offer a prize!

On December 5, we will look at our Google Blogger stats page, and the most popular story of the week will receive a $25 AMAZON GIFT CARD!

Yes, that's right, we have resorted to bribery. But hey, whatever works. We are trying to gain readership, and more importantly, we want more stories!!

Are you up for the challenge?

Here are the rules:

• Any story submitted to seniorshareproject@gmail.com between Thanksgiving Day (November 24) and Sunday, December 4 will be eligible.
• We will post one story per day for the full amount of stories we receive. If we go over our goal, we will keep posting stories until we use up all of the submissions received during the the submission window (Nov. 24 - Dec. 4).
• The story does NOT have to be Thanksgiving related! Just any family story will do.
• Once all of the stories have been posted, we will use Blogger Stats to determine the most popular story, and that author will win a gift card for $25 to Amazon.com!

So get those listening ears on, drag your laptop to Granny's, and let 'er rip! And yes, it is perfectly fair to bet you sister that YOUR story will beat HERS. We encourage friendly competition. :)

Don't forget to share www.SeniorShareProject.com with your friends and family, Like us on Facebook, and let the games begin!

We can't wait to hear from you!

Thanks,

Heidi and Eileen
