About Sandra Sealy
Site Creator’ s Bio
Fondly referred to in his “Bird Rising” (Words Need Love Too-House of Nehesi Publishers) by Kamau Brathwaite as “Princess of Chichén Itzá”, Sandra Sealy is a performance poet, cultural administrator and multi-award-winning writer of poetry, short stories, children’s stories, articles and plays from Barbados. She describes herself as “a Canadian-Barbadian raised writer clutching an English birth certificate”.
Her background in public relations and marketing combined with her strong creative writing skills have ably prepared her as a freelance writer/ editor. Sandra covers a number of niches like copy for brochures and websites, advertorials, restaurant and book reviews, press releases, feature and cover stories, pictorial text and more. Sandra’s work has been widely anthologised. Some of her writing credits include: CALABASH: A Journal of Caribbean Arts & Letters (USA) ; Arts Etc (Barbados); Her Circle Ezine.com; Caribbean Writing Today (ezine); POUI: The Cave Hill Literary Annual of the University of the West Indies (Barbados); Wedding Guide Barbados; SHE Caribbean Magazine (St. Lucia); Urban Entertainment (USA); In Paradise Magazine:Barbados (Writer/Editor) and the Nation Newspaper (Barbados).
Her dèbut spoken-word CD single “Beauty Of The Bald Head: The Jazzy Spoken-Word Single” (Butterfly Creative Productions/Kolaiah Studios 2003) which was favourably reviewed in Ejazznews.com, became a music video directed by Dr. Gladstone Yearwood.
She maintains 4 websites: Seawoman’s Caribbean Writing Opps (award-winning website dedicated to assisting international writers); Seawoman’s Caribbean Blogspot (writing blog); and Chronicles Of A Seawoman ONLINE (her award-winning & 1st poetry website). Conch Shell Weddings is Sandra Sealy’s newest one.
