I had planned to write the
editorial this quarter on the life and passing of
Michael Jackson – the greatest entertainer the world
has ever known or will ever know, a fine songwriter
whose every physical movement was mesmerising and
dumbfounding poetry. But I thought better of it. I
am a Michael Jackson fan, but I don’t know if you
are. I will keep my comments to my blog, and the
tribute site we are creating on the main sentinel
site at www.sentinelpoetry.org.uk/michaeljackson You will have noticed that
we have now kicked off our Quarterly competition
series to help fund this magazine and to keep it
free-to-read. The first in the series judged by Andy
Willoughby and Bob Beagrie has just been concluded
and the top three poems “Coffee“,
“Enemy Funeral”
and “The God of
Allotments” have received their first
publications in this issue of Sentinel Literary
Quarterly. The competition was quite successful and
we hope that it will get better and bigger, and we
can also increase the prize money. I hope that as usual, this
magazine brings you a rich package. We are striving
to improve and increase the content of the magazine
and shall be adding drama content from next quarter. Be well and God bless you. Nnorom Azuonye Editor Page Up |
