Cool quiz. I have an offer for ya. My name is Johnna and I run the art4thehomeless blog--a blog where I feature my art and help promote homeless awareness in America. I am creating an ezine that will feature 2 artists, 4 ads--FREE Advertising-- and a Homeless Shelter of the Month thing that will go out to quite a few of my friends and readers. What I am offering you is that if you help me promote, I will promote your blog in the zine. Sound cool? Just check out my site at http://art4thehomeless.nutang.com
If you choose to be featured artist or an ad, you will automatically be subscribed to the zine.
Peace
