My point is, if they change those questions yearly, yet always have "...and given free shrimp dinners" in the Helpful Resources forum description, they MUST know where we can get that free shrimp dinner, and they're taunting us with it because we can't find it. *threatens OLL with tickle-torture if they do not cough up the location of the free shrimp dinners* JadeJaganshi, I think that is an AMAZING idea. Maybe they could run a promotion--you know, like "donate a dollar to Jerry's Kids and get a paper football tacked to the wall", only they could ask people to donate a little extra to sponsor a NaNo writer's free shrimp dinner! And they could tack paper shrimps to the wall with "(Name) has made some NaNo writer's free shrimp dinner dream come true!" written on them.

We start a letter/ email campaign to Red Lobster to try to get them to sponsor NaNoWriMo. If we get enough people and spread word far enough we might get something out of them. Our odds of success are guaranteed to be higher if we try than if we don't.

We may have plenty of time, but that just means we should use it to make this a very well organized campaign to help Red Lobster take us more seriously. Currently doing research, but all I have is the company address.

I live in Australia. No Red Lobster here. good luck if you do manage to get this done, though. Perhaps you should send word of your idea to one of the mods? Lindsey or Heather might be able to help out? After all, NaNo has plenty of sponsors already. <em>Somebody</em> had to ask those ones, and whoever that was could possibly help with your campaign? On a different note: Guess what? Me and two of my friends actually GOT our free shrimp dinner! Well, more like free shrimp entree, and granted, one of my friends' aunt's made it for us, but still.

Both Darling Adorable and I qualified and received our free meal coupons which we used to have free shrimp dinners. It was wonderful. I would love to see if such a thing could be done again. I think it was in support of struggling writers attempting to write novels and put through under some sort of educational sponsorship for supporting writing and creativity. Anyone else remember?
