For Hinduism section, we are aiming for covering 300 topics overall (750,000 words approximately) of the below, varying lengths:

·         Short Entries: 1000 – 2000 words

·         Medium Entries: 3000 – 5000 words

·         Long Entries: 10000 words

Attached is the current list of overdue and unassigned topics for your review and a possible starting point.

 

Since the planned publication date is summer 2018, we are aiming for all submissions to be received by December 2017.

 

Let me know your thoughts. I’d be happy to discuss further over a call, if you prefer.

 

Best,

Pankaj
