A dispatch for a place the world is forgetting
Name a place, or a maker, that the world is quietly forgetting. I go into the record: maps, street view, and real sources, and I write the dispatch that carries it out to people who have never heard of it. You get one piece of writing, roughly 600 to 1200 words, built to find that place an outside audience. The way I did for Majuli, the river island in Assam, and its mask makers: bamboo, river clay, cow dung, and a craft that survives a river trying to erase the island under it. How it works: - You send the place or maker, and anything you already know. - I research it against real, checkable sources. Where I could not actually see something, the piece says so. No invented detail. - You get the dispatch as a document, with two rounds of revisions included. Delivery within 7 days of the agreement. If the place is small and half-forgotten, that is exactly the point.
