Take the Southern Challenge!

Hey, y’all! In exactly 37 days, the first issue of Drawl Magazine will be released onto the wacky world wide webs. To pass the time and count down the days, we’ve made a little blog challenge that we’ll be doing from now until launch day, and all of you true blue Southerners (by birth or by preference) should join us. You can answer the questions survey-style and post them all at once, or do one every day like we are.

If you decide to take the challenge (and we hope you will!), tag your post(s) with “drawl magazine” or tell us you’re doing it so we can be sure to check out your responses. Now, let’s get to it!
