SoWalScene.com, SoWalDining.com, Jill's Blog
If you have followed SoWalScene.com over the last year, you may have noticed the absence of the regular feature called The SoWalScene.com Q&A (found under the "People & Celebrities" category).
Like a few other regular features, it {gasp} got pushed to the side over the last coupla months as I've been working on the design and layout of the site and it's expansion to be able to bring you more fun information about the people, places and things in South Walton county in 2009 and beyond.
Well for those that have missed it - IT'S BACK! Not only is it back, to keep it fun and entertaining, I've created a whole new list of telling questions I will be posing to the movers and shakers in our community.
To show you the new format, I thought I'd start it up again by doing the Q&A myself. Stay-tuned for more!
