Student internship Opportunity
Online Scribblers is home to talented students who are passionate about writing and eager to gain meaningful real-world experience.
Each year our Student Literary Magazine Internship gives one motivated student the opportunity to help produce the next edition of Scribbler’s Ink, the Online Scribblers literary magazine. The magazine is published as a digital e-zine and showcases outstanding writing from our student community.
**Note: This is an unpaid internship opportunity**
