His essays and reviews have appeared in the Chicago-Sun Times, Out.com, the Durham-Chapel Hill Herald, the Hartford Courant, and elsewhere. He is Literary Editor for A&U Magazine and Associate Editor for Assaracus and LambdaLiterary.org.

Calderwood's illustrations have also appeared in the San Francisco Examiner and the anthology Through Our Eyes. His writing, illustration, and music are featured in the 2009 film The Butch Factor.
