The vision of
the movement is to build the world’s premier community of writers
and artists from all backgrounds, nationalities, race, religion,
gender, age, sexuality, political or ideological affiliation.
It is our dream to build a comfortable place where established
writers and artists in the nascent stages of their development may
interact either through our unmoderated open forums, or through our
new Writers Clubhouse which replaces the old Poetry Bar.
In addition to these interactive forums, SPM Publications – the
publishing arm of Sentinel Poetry Movement publishes Sentinel Literary Quarterly; an online magazine of world
literature and art. Sentinel Literary Quarterly is an amalgamation
of our now archived titles: Sentinel Poetry (Online) and Sentinel Poetry Quarterly (Print). SPM Publications also
publishes two other magazines;
Sentinel Nigeria and Sentinel Champions – The Sentinel Literary Quarterly
Competitions Magazine published every 3 months in print and eBook.
At Sentinel
Poetry Movement we also run regular writing competitions in poetry and fiction.
From time to time, we hold a live reading event, and run a bi-annual
festival to bring our members together.
Sentinel Poetry Movement was founded in December 2002 by poet,
fiction writer, and dramatist Nnorom Azuonye.
