Please feel free to write in any language of your choosing, but we will be grateful if you provide translations. Cross posting your own articles from other blogs and journals is okay with us. Selected articles may be published in the annual magazine.

We will be particularly happy to receive the following kinds of entries -

        * fieldwork experiences and reflections – For examples of articles see  https://pmrdfellows.wordpress.com/2013/05/22/far-away-in-the-fields-a-journey-of-hope-despair-and-dreams/ and also a journalist's account from the Ghar Bachao Ghar Banao Andolan - http://moonchasing.wordpress.com/2013/04/05/the-stillness-of-rage/

        * satire/parodies – Especially satires of campus life. For example, Faking News has parodies of politics as well as everyday life. See for example http://www.fakingnews.firstpost.com/2013/07/man-loses-job-after-he-tries-to-impress-client-by-chewing-rajnigandha-paan-masala/

        * politics and society - The idea is to have personalized reflections on politics and society. For example see http://kafila.org/2013/08/03/unrequited-love-or-simply-self-love-reflections-in-the-wake-of-a-campus-tragedy-at-jnu-shivani-nag/

        * a culture-box of sorts - articles on films, books or other aspects of culture – especially cultures that you hail from.

        * flash-fiction -  fiction that is really really short (a length that you can read in five minutes). Examples are http://www.noojournal.com/view.php?mode=1&issue=weekly&id=440 and http://www.anderbo.com/anderbo1/afiction-038.html.

        * photos/cartoons etc

        *transcripts or recordings of public lectures or summaries of events you have organized on the campus.
