Howdy, I'm Cal! | he/him
Welcome to my corner, it's great to have you. Here, you can find out what I'm working on, check out some of my previous work, and find my different socials.
Take a look around, see if anything catches your eye, and feel free to let me know if you like it!
Do you wish you had a way to turn your ideas into stories? Do you want to support a writer looking for work?
Then boy, oh boy, do I have the thing for you! For the low, low price of free, I'm taking a few story requests!
You can find just about all of my public work on my AO3 below.I'm only doing short, one-off stories with a timeline of about:
<500 words | ~1 week |<1.5k words | ~2 weeksWill Do: OCs & fandoms, angst, fluff, hurt/comfort, non-human characters, NSFW, ships, friendships/gen, AUs, etc.
Won't Do: explicit abuse, hateful content, gore, incest, pedo, beastiality, etc.
For OCs and fandom content, be prepared to provide as much info on them as possible. I will choose whether or not to write NSFW on a case by case basis.If you're interested, DM me on Tumblr or Bluesky. Toss me a trope, fandom, and a word count, and I'll get to work as soon as possible!

My name is Calliope, I am a passionate and dedicated writer and artist with a thing for the sun!
I started out writing on Wattpad when I was 10 years old, and creating Minecraft roleplays for my friends to act out. I’m always excited to learn new ways to tell stories and work with new people to make a dream project something real.

☆ My Works ☆
A writer is what I am first and foremost, so I felt it appropriate to keep the bulk of my written work separate from the rest of my portfolio. Here is a curated selection of pieces that I think you'd like!
Rudo's felt loss before Regto, but he's never felt hope like this. Being reunited with someone who was such a big part in his life, someone who was almost as important to him as Regto... He feels hopeful that he'll make it back to The Surface and give them all Hell.
Based on the song "Ma Belle Evangeline" from Disney's The Princess and the Frog.
Ray has always been in love with Evangeline, the light of his life and a star who had once seemed unreachable. He loves her and she loves him.
In a post-modern world, Levin and Mila have a disagreement about the importance of taking care of their ever changing world.
Samael faces a difficult decision. He knows what the outcome will be, but can he bring himself to do it? Surely someone else in the community has a way around this... issue.
While helping his mother in the garden, Dallin learns a lesson on patience.
Martin has been slowly losing his eyesight for a while, but there is one person who has always been there for him.
Based on the Reedsy prompt "set your story in a world without color".
Jacob hasn't been able to write in what must be years now. But now that he's gotten his hands on a grimoire, things are starting to look up again! But his muse won't be summoned so easily...
Based on the Reedsy prompt: "Write about someone who summons the creative muse through a convoluted ritual or method."
