Kaleidotrope will be open to fiction and poetry submissions April 19-25.

Kaleidotrope is currently open to artwork submissions.

"Give us stories of satellites and sewists, terminals and tailors, dandies and dying stars.

Give us gossip wicked and vital, dinner parties salacious and droll, debutantes vile and intrepid.

Give us unforgivable rudeness and oppressive etiquette, scathing asides and dire gaffes."
