Writers/pitches wanted (Buddhism, mindfulness, history, etc.) (worldwide) | $250+ per article

COMPANY/PUBLICATION: TRICYCLE MAGAZINE 

Mike Sheffield, Web Editor at Tricycle Magazine, is looking for writers:

I am looking to expand my roster of potential writers for Tricycle Magazine who cover Buddhism, mindfulness, religion, art, history, and pop culture (even better if a combination of all of the above).

Our rates start at $250 for basic interview pieces, personal reflections, and teachings and go up from there for reported pieces, reviews, and more in-depth projects.

Check out our website to get a feel for the type of articles we publish. I'm definitely looking for East and West Coast writers for event coverage but open to writers from all over the world who are interested in exploring Buddhism and how it shows up in their everyday life.

• Questions/submissions: msheffield@tricycle.org
