Mission Statement / Editorial Focus
Grande Dame Literary & Art Journal (Moth&Thistle) is dedicated to supporting women writers and, starting in the summer of 2026, women artists as well. Writers from every corner of the world, range from emerging voices to self-published novelists to award-winning, traditionally published authors. Our contributors span generations, from teens to writers in their nineties. At GDL, we believe every woman is a self-defined Grande Dame, and that spirit is what guides our publication. What we look for:
Stories with strong characters that have a solid arc.
Memoirs that read like stories.
Essays and poetry that inspires.
Flash fiction and flash nonfiction that is punchy and to the point.
