The Read
Writers, journalists, researchers
One long editorial on how the body actually works. 1,600–2,400 words. Mechanism first, named studies, no pep talk.
The ask: Pitch a paragraph. Not a draft.
Signals
Reporters and analysts
Short, sharp reads on what moved in wellness, sport and health this week — and what it means for a nervous system.
The ask: Three lines per signal is plenty.
The Verdict
Brands and testers
One product, used for two to three weeks, reviewed with the evidence still attached. Honest by design — verdicts run whether they flatter or not.
The ask: Send one unit or two weeks of access.
The Practice
Coaches, practitioners, therapists
One practice a reader can do tonight. Numbered steps, the mechanism in a sentence, credited by name and modality.
The ask: Three lines, or a five-minute voice note.
The Companion
Podcasters and video makers
An edition cut for audio or built for screen. We supply the script spine and the sources; you keep creative control and the upload.
The ask: Read the spine before committing to anything.
How it works, plainly
- Commissions are paid. Rates depend on the slot and the length. Ask and I'll send the current rate card — no negotiation theatre.
- You keep your byline and your links. Every contributor is named in the edition and again in the credit note that goes out when it ships.
- Editing is light. I edit for mechanism and clarity, never to flatten a voice into house style. You see changes before publication.
- Verdicts stay honest. Brands never see a verdict before readers do, and nobody pays for one. That's the whole reason the slot is worth anything.
- One pitch is enough. A paragraph, a voice note, or a single line saying "interested, send terms". Silence is a fine answer too.
Pitches go to desk@kokorology.com. Put the slot name in the subject line and I'll answer in a day or two.
