Editorial Fellowship

Teachers & Writers Magazine is accepting applications for the Teachers & Writers Editorial Fellowship until May 31, 2026. The fellow will join the T&W Editorial Board and assist with the production of Teachers & Writers Magazine. The Editorial Fellowship is intended to give graduate students, recent graduates, and early-stage professionals with equivalent experience an opportunity to gain editorial and publishing experience through hands-on assignments and mentorship from skilled editors. By the end of the fellowship term, the fellow should have a body of knowledge and work which may be shared in a resume and/or portfolio. One fellow will be selected for this term.

The Editorial Fellow will be expected to attend monthly meetings via Zoom, where the editorial board will discuss submissions, accept editorial assignments, generate new content, and further engage in the publication of Teachers & Writers Magazine. The fellow will be paired with an experienced editor to establish a mentor relationship and provide time and space for questions the editorial fellows may have.

The fellow will be expected to edit at least one piece per month. In addition to accepting editing assignments, fellows may pitch ideas to generate or solicit new material for the magazine. The Editorial Fellowship will last for one year (July 2026 – June 2027), with the possibility of renewing for a second year following a review. The fellow’s stipend will disbursed over the course of the year on a bi-monthly (every other month) schedule.
