Help Us Market Our Stories!
Calliope catapults your imagination with written stories introduced by vibrant —and interactive— animations. In our app, these interactive animations act as portals that submerge readers into written stories. We love reading, but reading today is tricky. At Calliope we’re passionate about enchanting readers away from visually striking apps (like Instagram) and back into the realm of the imagination.  
We’re a small company founded by two nerdy Venezuelan girls looking for people who share our zeal for reading, and who want to create a world where reading is colorful, vibrant, and immersive for everyone.  
What we’re looking for: 
- Experience with social media and digital marketing.
- Seasoned experience in orchestrating paid campaigns on Instagram and TikTok (—and Tumblr).
- A flair for creating dazzling content (no need to be a graphic designer or videographer, but a good taste and an appetite for learning are essential).
- The skill to grasp and embody our brand tone, understand our audience inside out, and devise enchanting content.
- Proficiency in SEO and data analytics.
- A balance of independent initiative and teamwork.
- Agile adaptability, attentiveness to feedback, and the capacity to grow from constructive critiques.
- Proactive problem-solving and execution.
- Near native written English.
Your Role:
- Developing inventive social media strategies to amplify visibility and subscriptions.
- Designing content that’s both captivating and relevant to our audience.
- Spearheading advertising campaigns on social media.
- Analyzing and reporting the successes and lessons of campaigns and strategies.
- Staying on the cutting edge of social media trends, particularly in our niche.
What We Offer:
- We value your thirst for learning and involvement more than your past experience.
- A 100% remote work setup: your performance matters, not your location.
- A goal-oriented work environment: manage your time and enjoy flexibility.
- A unique opportunity to grow with us and lead the marketing team as we expand the project.
- Competitive pay with prospective salary growth and bonuses as the company thrives.
How to Apply
If you’re eager to make reading vibrant and fun, we’d love to hear from you. To apply, please send the following to [email protected].
A resume; 
A portfolio of your previous social media or digital content creation work; 
A brief cover letter explaining what attracted you to Calliope; 
And two sentences describing three Instagram or TikTok posts that you would make for Calliope.  
If you’re interested in learning more, please check out our app in the Google Play Store and Apple App Store; and our social media: Instagram & TikTok

Hello! I know if there were any updates you’d probably tell us, but how is the hunt for a publisher going?
Sorry if this is annoying, I just think it’s really awesome that you’re doing this.
Definitely not annoying, thanks so much for your question! Honestly things aren’t going amazingly right now; I’ve so far had only negative responses from agents and they’ve all been form responses so they haven’t included any feedback as to why they chose to pass on my work. It’s difficult because although obviously I’m aware that they’re very busy people with a lot of submissions to look through and they don’t have time to give feedback for every application they receive, it can also be quite draining to constantly have rejection without knowing why. I took a bit of a creative hit because of it and haven’t worked on anything in conjunction to the story and its sequels (it’s the first in a trilogy and the sequels have been planned and at least partially outlined, I started writing the second one in November) but I’m trying to rekindle that at the minute and maybe this is a pretty good place to do that, so maybe if anyone has any questions about the book or the worldbuilding or anything really then let me know and it’s probably be good for me to talk about it and remember why I love it. Thanks so much for your question and fingers crossed I’ll have some more exciting news to share in the future 🖤

John Bartholomew was born in Edinburgh on December 25th, 1831 in Edinburgh.
If, like my family, you enjoyed playing Scrabble, I think the majority of us had at hand a Bartholomew's dictionary at hand for checking spellings and some of us had one of their atlas's where we could look up exotic places far from Scottish shores that we could only dream of, the world since then has gotten a hell of a lot smaller thanks to the World Wide Web and the Internet.
He was still very young when he acquired the skills of map drawing and engraving directly from his father, John Senior.
He was then sent to London for more formal training as a geographical draughtsman and engraver. He spent two years with the noted German geographer Augustus Petermann. His love for maps and geographical work soon led him to make rapid progress as a cartographer.
Returning to Edinburgh, he continued his father’s business with great energy, and, in conjunction with Dr Petermann, he contributed most of the maps to Fullarton’s Royal Illustrated Atlas, and to the Philip’s Imperial Atlas, drawn and engraved in Edinburgh. Other important works followed including Black’s General Atlas of the World; a large topographical map of Scotland on a scale of four miles to an inch; and afterwards a companion map of England and Wales from the survey just then completed.
In 1859, John married Annie, the daughter of John McGregor, a smith of Greenock. Following his first wife’s death in 1874 he married Anne Cumming, the daughter of Primrose Nimmo, a master brass founder of Edinburgh, and his wife, Anne Philip, who was related to George Philip, the founder of the Liverpool map makers.
From his two marriages, John had two sons, and seven daughters
John was sought after as an engraver in Scotland for work outside his cartographic focus as well, including as illustrated here botanical drawings.
He is said to have had a reserved nature, which made him unwilling to enter fully into public life, but he took great interest in the reformation of the Scottish rights of way and Recreational Society and was elected a fellow of the Royal Geographical Society in 1857.
John travelled widely to obtain new work and introduced a programme of improvements, including the installation of lithographic printing, which brought considerable savings to the business from increased productivity.
His works attracted much public commendation, and received distinguished awards at different international exhibitions. About 1870, as the business gradually extended, several important atlases were undertaken for American and foreign publishers, the Handy General Atlas of the World being published simultaneously in England and America.
John Bartholomew Jr was also commissioned to engrave the map of Treasure Island for Robert L. Stevenson as seen in the pics
In 1888, he retired from active work, leaving the management of his business to his son, John George.
On a trip to London seeking special treatment, he died in March 1893 and was buried in Edinburgh.

Powerpoint and Word are partners, lovers even. Excel is some kind of nerd that gets shoved into a locker. Access and Publisher are the high end couple barely anyone dares to talk to. And Outlook is.. kind of a whore.

background info:
i’ve wanted to be an architect for my entire life, but i’m about to graduate and am second guessing myself. i’m not very creative design wise, probably the worst sketcher ever, and also my worst subject is math. is architecture even a realistic option for me?
the rest are all things i’ve seriously thought about doing, but don’t know as much about or have as much experience. i think being a comp sci major would be great and probably pay a lot and be easier to find a job, but will i even enjoy it or be good at it?
i used to always say my second choice was an english major and i wanted to start my own publishing company, but i don’t know the logistics of that and i assume it doesn’t pay well.
same with history/archeology. i am very interested esp with ancient civilizations and know probably more than the average person, but it most likely won’t pay well.
neuroscientist was kind of a one off thing because i really enjoyed that section of psychology and did really well at it.
anyways send me a msg or put in tags if you have thoughts! need advice.

The Thing Of It.
So, here’s the thing. I had thought that the recent rejection of my novel Minotaur by a publisher wasn’t a big deal, but it kind of was. Last night, I was going to post about not writing novels anymore and just focusing on writing poetry, short stories and painting. The thing of it is, I had written and edited Minotaur with that specific publisher in mind. It took me three long years to complete…
