This is a ‘proof of concept’ blog to show how a Daily Prompt style blog can be implemented using the Dyad 2 WordPress theme (now that the WordPress Daily Prompt site is no longer providing new prompts).
You will see a list of old prompts from the WordPress Daily Prompt site at the bottom of this page. You can also look at this list of old prompts.
Imagine a number of such blogs, connected by a “meta” blog to connect them together (a blog linking to the other blogs).
