SOFT MYST's CHAT SURVEY

I have just finished my first book about Internet Chat! *WHEW* Now I am now gathering information for a second book. I hope to show the world what chat is really like from the information I receive in this Survey. I would be proud to have your participation and you could be selected to receive a FREE copy of the book. The ten best honest answers will be given a free copy of the book when it is finished. The book will be a compilation of what real chatters have to say about chat! All you need to do is fill out the 30 questions on this form. Participation is voluntary and real names and email addresses will not be disclosed. People's handles (chat names) will only be used to express how and why people select their handles. I would be particularly interested in stories of how chatlines have affected your life. Here is your chance to tell the world how you feel about chat and what chat means to you!
