Vanity Fair editor-in-chief Graydon Carter is said to have approached Brown about writing a column for the celebrity and news magazine.
Brown has yet to announce her plans now that Talk has closed. Speculation had indicated that she was to publish her diaries, but this has since been denied by Brown.
After editing Vanity Fair and being credited with turning around the fortunes of the Conde Nast title, Brown became editor of The New Yorker.
She left to start Talk magazine in 1999, a rival to Vanity Fair. However, earlier this year, Miramax pulled the plug on the magazine, which had failed to set the publishing world alight despite the glamour of its star-studded launch party.
Talk reportedly burned through some $50m (£35m) before its closure in February.
