Write for Tehelka's web edition

You may want to get your byline on the print edition. But, it might serve you well to know that a lot of TEHELKA readers read it online, especially readers abroad.

In Tehelka's website www.tehelka.com , the Web Exclusives section is meant for pieces that do not go on the magazine. Tehelka has about three of these every week, the menu for which is given in contents in the week’s print edition.

The payment is usually Rs 1.50 a word and the recommended length would fall in the region of 800-1200. With features or interviews, this is really the ideal way to catch the eye of the editors here and get a foothold in the system.

Mail your pieces to editors@tehelka.com.

As usual we suggest that you mail short briefs, your story ideas first and get an okay from the editors before embarking on your piece. Read more about freelancing for Tehelka here.
