Seasons Greetings from Grande Dame Literary Journal

We wish you a warm and wonderful holiday!

Submissions are closed until February 1, 2026

See you in the NEW YEAR!

Grande Dame Literary is for WOMEN WRITERS of any age and their VIBRANT VOICES. There is a Grande Dame in every woman, and we are women writers/editors who support women writers. We do not define age, nor should you. If you like our posts and feel your voice is a good fit, send us a piece. Empowering and encouraging women writers is of utmost importance. Your vibrant voice is the greatest asset to your writing and Grande Dame Literary accepts work based on the strength of the story, the solid arc of characters, and potential appeal to our readers. 

Stay in the loop with the Grande Dame Literary Newsletter

Please note, we do not accept work that promotes discrimination or division, is sexually explicit in nature, renders graphic depictions of abuse, or is politically motivated.
