Proser of the Month

Hi, Prosers!

As you know, our motto this year is transparency, with our core focus on you, our Prosers.

Around a month ago, we decided during a team meeting that we wanted to crown a “Proser of the Month” each month, as a celebration of the talents and contributions of the community.

We put our heads together to choose our first Proser of the Month, and we all unanimously chose this particular Proser.

This person has been active on Prose for a whole year now, and has brought so much to the table. Not only can he write so superbly that he makes us all green with envy, but he writes with such raw honesty that he moves the reader with his prose every single time, without fail.

He is the creator of the hashtag fuckery, that many Prosers have adopted, and has helped Prose behind-the-scenes by providing valuable feedback and advice. He is all-in when it comes to Prose, and invests all of his spare time, and words, into making this community what it is. He supports his peers by providing valuable feedback, and we think he is damn awesome!

Your first Proser of the Month is Rolando Hernandez, otherwise known as @rh! Congratulations, Rolando, this is absolutely deserved.

What does this even mean? Well, firstly, it gives you bragging rights. It also gives you a beautiful PDF version of our favourite piece of yours, voted for by the team. We will send this to you via email. Print it, frame it, hang it. It’s yours to do with what you will. The piece that we have chosen to showcase is “Virgil.”

Across our social media each week we will be sharing your profile and prose with our followers. We believe that you epitomise what Prose is, and will always encompass. Talent. Craft. Measure. Support. Community. The freedom to express oneself.

Karen, our super talented designer, has made a video of your piece, which has kicked off our brand new YouTube channel. It’s available now. (We will embed the link in this piece.) We will share this across our social media channels, and we hope that all Prosers will too! A copy of this video will also be emailed to you.

Finally, we want you to help us choose the next Proser of the Month. We will get in touch with you to discuss within 24 hours.

We couldn’t be more proud to have you as a part of the community, a community that we know will join us in congratulating you on this achievement. Thank you for sticking around, thank you for being an integral part of Prose.

Irons way up, dude.

Until next time, Prosers, keep doing what you do. Write.

Prose.
