Although a selection is made for the winners and honorable mentions - everyone was a "Topper"! Thanks for your participation.

Reminder - please do not forget to adhere to the Guidelines -this includes the correct spelling of #neoxianprompts (with an s) and the maximum number of words.
Your effort is appreciated. AI content is easily detectable. When selection is difficult - Guidelines matter.

The Toppers!!

Grandeur expectations by @beckyroyal

Mr Sunday's retirement celebration was held today at the office. Finally, he was done with civil service and would now be spending his remaining days in freestyle living with his beautiful wife on a seaside bungalow he had recently purchased.

Barbara, what are you looking forward to this year? by @janaveda

The macroeconomic outlook looked bleak, an unprecedented crisis was taking its first steps in the newly begun leap year, and it foreshadowed changes that were not at all favorable for the majority.Barbara, a mature woman who was about to turn sixty, as usual, met with her sister Gloria to talk about their plans for this year, just as they had done since they were little girls. They daydreamed and established strategies for such purposes.

Looking Forward to Life with the Duchess by @sabrinah

I would have stayed back and had my soul lost in my library, reading books about aristocracy and ships rather than have myself rock and roll with these folks but I had no choice. I was the heir and I needed to be present. I looked back at the ballroom, unimpressed by the aura of things before resting on the balcony, sighing deeply. There was not much view before me aside from the lake and the ranch close by.

Embarking on a health expedition in 2024 by @vickoly

The year 2024 is right underway and moving at a steady pace, and loads of people have set their goals and even have a few things or events they're or aren't looking forward to this year. Just like everyone else, I've got the same, and although what I'm looking forward to this year might seem somewhat awkward to many others, it's for the greater good, and today I'll love to tell you all about mine.

My Outlook For The Year by @udezee

My primary goal for the year is to gain and maintain financial stability as I believe it is the catalyst that will transform most of my aspirations and goals into reality. I intend to secure a healthy financial status by constantly updating my knowledge and being decisive whenever I come across good financial opportunities. One of such opportunities which I plan to capitalise maximally is the upcoming "bull run" in the world of cryptocurrency.
