What: Announcing the Caravan Paid-Internship Programme 2009.

Are you a writer with an eye for detail?

Have you wished that newspaper and magazine writing were more engaging, personal and reached you like a conversation, while still feeding you with information, investigation, substance, true plots and dialogues?

In North America and Europe, such writing is known to many as New Journalism. Magazines such as The New Yorker, Harpers, Granta marked their ways of telling true stories in narrative writing.

In India, most of our journalism writing, as Tom Wolfe would've called it, "is like the standard announcer's voice...a drag, a droning..." and we're yet to let journalism marry literature in magazines. Our question hence is: do you have a burning desire to tell true stories -- as a zealous journalist to get your feet dirty for facts, and as a writer to make it witty and engaging?
