    Contributors receive a copy. Our website content is similar, but not identical, to that of printed Calliope. Occasionally an author whose work is accepted for publication by printed Calliope declines to have that work appear on the web. While Calliope editors give publishing preference to members of the Writers’ SIG, membership is not required for submitting work. All submissions will be given consideration. NOTE: Submissions sent without prior query will most likely end up in the Spam file.
