In Corpore Sano: Creative Practice and the Challenged Body Anthology A project of The Operating System (OS) Press (see other related projects). Permanently Closed: This project is permanently closed to submissions. We provide the following information as an archive. About Does your body have a presence in/relationship to your creative practice, specifically your creative processes? Has the relationship of your body to your practice altered over a period of time (even a short period, or a sudden alteration) through the actions of age, illness, injury, childbearing, gender transition, or other bodily changes? Has caretaking activity in relation to another’s bodily changes become important to your own creative practice, whether as subject or as frame? Does your work reflect your somatic realities, whether overtly or subtly? Does the body inform the structure of your work, over or in addition to its content? We invite you to contribute to an anthology of texts engaging these inquiries. We welcome prose, poetry, hybrid texts, comics, interviews, performance texts and documentation, etc. We are especially interested in work that avoids, complicates or transcends traditional narrative forms/modes.
