PRISDANTE SEASON!
“The Poet’s Way Project”
It was an unremarkable day sometime early in the year, around the time of Rhonda Yates, “Ashes to Ice” Poetry Contest in celebration of her book “Ashes to Ice” going Number 1 in multiple categories on Amazon and I saw Jonathon’s entry for the competition and something instantly struck me. His poetry had a pristine quality to it, almost impossible to fully explain the spectrum of feelings a person gets from reading Jonathon. Fast forward, he is one of the finalists of the competition and joins the Collab Tour. His poetry, with its tinge of history and philosophy for me had a quality that needed to be highlighted.
As it was to be, Jonathon already had dreams of publishing his debut collection but was not too sure how to go about it , what with a following then of about 300 followers and no serious buzz to his poetry. I was convinced regardless and the dream started with a strict regimen on how to get better on IG and grow a cult following. Now, standing at almost 5k followers on Instagram and still rapidly growing, “PRISDANTE:The Poet’s Way” dropped last week and in less than 24hours had charted on the American Poetry Bestsellers List and European Poetry Bestsellers Lists simultaneously, and Jonathon became the very first member of the Collab Tour to chart on both bestsellers lists at the same time. Jonathon also became the official “Number 16” of the Collab Tour, which now has 16 consecutive bestselling Authors in its ranks with Jonathon’s debut collection making it the perfect 16.
The Sky is the starting point for Jonathon and the level of talent he has. This also will be the first of many bestselling books in his future and finally, the entire tour thanks Jonathon Fagen for making the tour so proud on the world stage. I declare the #PrisdanteSeason officially open.
