Nogo moved from Sarajevo to Belgrade in 1982.
From 2000, he taught poetry and literary criticism at the Faculty of Philosophy of the University of East Sarajevo.[4][3] He was elected a corresponding member of the Academy of Sciences and Arts of the Republic of Srpska on 27 June 1997, and a regular member on 21 June 2004.[4] He was a member of the Association of Writers of Serbia. On 30 March 2012, the Board of Directors of the Association of Writers of Serbia proposed him as a corresponding member of the Serbian Academy of Sciences and Arts.[5]
