**challenge to you**

as a part of my blog party, i'd LOVE to learn more about anyone that reads my blog. on another blog i read, the lady calls the people who keep up with her blog "faithfuls". i would like to come up with something to call you as well and i decided on subscribers. this can be taken literally since you can actually "subscribe" to a blog. but since this place is known as the chronicles, i thought it was fitting! 

NOW...i have a few challenges - and some motivation to help you WANT to participate!!!

i will randomly select winner(s) for a prize or two or three. i am not *telling* what the prize is because it might vary slightly depending on who wins. to be entered, do any of these things. if you do more, you'll be entered more.

ways to enter:
~ respond to this post with answers to the questions i've listed below (choose the set that is relevant to you).
~ recruit one person to come check out my blog (have them leave a post, stating by whom they were referred) -- if you recruit multiple people, you will get one prize entry per person that comments!
~ add a post to YOUR blog about my blog party (with a link) and then leave me a comment letting me know you've done so. don't forget to give me a link to your blog so i can check it out too!!
~ subscribe to my blog through blogger or using a reader (if you've already done this, just let me know that too!). there is a "follow me" button in the sidebar that you can use.

QUESTIONS:
if you are already a "subscriber"...
1) about how often do you check in (daily, weekly, monthly)? how do you do so? (you just stop by when you think about it, you are reminded by the link in my email signature, you "follow" me through blogger, you have added the blog to a reader, etc).

2) what first brought you to my blog and/or how did you find it? (you are a friend? you are a scrapbooker? etc.)

3) what types of things do you like to see here at the chronicles?

4) do you have a blog you'd like to share? if so, include the link.

if you are new to the chronicles...
1) how did you end up here? (referred by someone? linked from another blog post? etc)

2) what types of posts would have you coming back to visit frequently?

3) do you have a blog you'd like to share? if so, include the link.

SUBMISSIONS MUST BE IN BY FEBRUARY 24th (Coleman's Birthday!!!) and I will announce prizes and winners by the end of the month. Yes, I know this is a long time to wait, but I want to give plenty of time for people to get involved!
