THE SENTINEL CHAMPIONS PRIVILEGE CLUB

sentinel champions #5

This is new. At Sentinel Poetry Movement, we have just launched the Sentinel Champions Privilege Club. This is a free-t--join club for writers and publishers. Every quarter, we send every member a free Sentinel Champions eBook stuffed with short stories, poems, interviews, and soon, articles geared at training the creative writer which should prove useful to both the established and the upcoming writer.

Every month, all members receive the Sentinel Champions Privilege Club E-mail  Newsletter. This newsletter will carry information on all new or forthcoming writing competitions organised by Sentinel Poetry Movement and other organisations. It will also announce new books published by members of the privilege club, or by SPM Publications - the publishing arm of Sentinel Poetry Movement.

OK, so you get a free magazine every quarter, you get an e-mail newsletter every month, you get a chance to sell your books to other members, and you can unsubscribe from the club at any time. I can't think of any reason why you should not join. Can you? I didn't think so. Here is the link:

THE FAKE PROPHET CINEMA RUN

You are invited to step out to the cinema in May to see The Fake Prophet - an important film by Teco Benson produced by Stepping Stones Nigeria and TFP Global Network that spotlights the plight of the so-called witch children in Nigeria. The great thing about this film is that it manages to sell a good message without becoming an advertorial. It is a very entertaining film with some well-developed and memorable characters. Starring Charles Okafor, Big Fred Ezimmadu, Grace Amah and Samuel Ajibola, this is a must-see.

Thursday, 19th May 2011 @ 7pm

Friday & Saturday, 20th & 21st May @ 10.45pm

Tickets now on sale online: £10, £12.50 & £20

Brought to you by Nollywood Focus | Stepping Stones Nigeria | TFP Global Network | Screen Nation
