At Thimble Literary Magazine, we believe armor can be found in the oddest of places: whether that’s facing a hard truth head-on or reframing it so you can better understand it. We believe the stories we tell ourselves to be the most powerful protection for our edges.

We are a quarterly online journal that aims for a print feel. We publish in March, June, September, and December. We seek poetry, visual art, and short-stories.

Our staff consists of Nadia Arioli (Wolnisty), Editor-in-Chief, Phil Cerroni, Managing Editor, Paul Koniecki, Associate Editor, Caitlin Cowan and Justice Ferguson Jared, Submissions Editors.

We are keen to encourage quality, so suggest writers to check their stories before submitting using Prowritingaid. They have free and paid versions and are the best writing software we know to help improve grammar, readability and check for repetition, ‘sticky’ sentences and suggest alternatives.
