Calliope Nerve Permanently Closed: This project is permanently closed to submissions. We provide the following information as an archive. We list other projects with similar titles. Please check that you report any submissions under the correct listing. About Calliope Nerve is a web log (our primary venture), informal zine, and publishing company focusing on high quality poetry, art, photography, comics, animation, vispo, and short-lit with a bent for dark, sur-real, and/or experimental pieces. All submissions must be sans the snobbery and elitism of other publications. Art must be shared with the world, it belongs to all, this is mantra. Calliope Nerve has published everyone from Pushcart Award Winners to retired pest exterminators to seventeen year old cheerleaders. Calliope does not care whether the world gets us or not, we are artists. Most importantly, our editorial staff is looking for as much originality in content as possible.
