 This challenge arose out of the Popsugar challenge this year.  There was a feeling as though the topics didn't feel as though they were keeping in the tradition of previous years and the focus on using the year to define prompts.  This is the result of some creative brainstorming on the year 2023  Found on Storygraph here
