I subscribedto your blog!
Thanks Chris, you’re awesome!
Yor FB page is really cool.
Thanks Robert! Been spending a lot of time staring at computer screens lately.
Hi! This is Dennis and really think I have subscribed to email – but – hope it really worked
Great page!
Hi Dennis! I can tell someone clicked on my feed, but that’s all I can see (which is why I ask people to leave me comments). If I show up in your reader, then it worked!
I “liked” your facebook page, plus next week I turn 35. I totally deserve this as a present.
That’s right, our birthdays are next week! Except mine this year is on the day we memorialize our dead. Nice.
. Thanks for liking the page. We need to talk soon!
You’re welcome and yes, we should talk soon! I hope your birthday is fantastic! It’s a great reason to celebrate the living, too. Hugs, & btw, I also followed your twitter. Finally gave me the excuse I was looking for to join up.
Thanks Amber! Yeah, I’ve had the Twitter account for a while, but only recently decided to start using it.
And BTW (2), I already had your blog in my RSS feed.
If we weren’t friends and you didn’t ask us to follow your art, would it be stalking?
Nah, blogs are meant to be followed!
Officially following you!
Yay! I hope the residency is going well and that you’ve found some work-arounds to some some of the obstacles!
And liked…

I couldn’t find the “sidebar” to subscribe to the blog, but I do receive email updates from you, which is how I found out about the giveaway.
Hmm, it’s on the right hand side of the blog post. There’s the RSS feed icon and below that, a place to subscribe to via email. I think you might only be able to view that on the actual blog, http://rmgardner.wordpress.com/, rather than the email I sent out. So, that would be my bad. Since, one, you tried, and two, you’re on my mailing list, I’ll count you at 3 entries.
Ahhh, you have be on the blog’s “home” page for that sidebar to show up. Good to know. Thanks for the catch.
I liked the Facebook! Nice work!
Thanks Sarah!
