Contribute to CNTales
CNTales is a multilingual project publishing one Chinese story a week — folk tales, myths and contemporary oral accounts, told with restraint, honesty and clear sourcing.
We are looking for two kinds of people:
- Translators — native-level, who can carry context across, not just words. Priority languages: EN, ES, FR, JA, KO, DE, AR (other languages welcome too).
- Writers / field recorders — people willing to listen, document and verify sources; knowledge of regional storytelling or classical references is a plus.
We offer: byline, per-piece payment (paid trial), and readers in your own language.
To apply, send two paragraphs of your best translated or written work, plus the first story you would like to do — or one from your hometown.
