matcha house hosts creative writing contests. A new prompt is given periodically as inspiration for writers to get their creativity flowing! Winning authors will receive a prize, and all pieces may be published in our library

Poems, fiction, creative non-fiction, non-fiction, short stories, vignettes, and dramatic scripts are accepted, as long as they are your original pieces and not generated in any part by AI. You may submit pieces that have been simultaneously submitted or previously published. Also, please ensure that all spacing and line breaks are as you would like them to appear if published!

*matcha house encourages all types of writing, and will display a content warning for any explicit content published.*

We are currently accepting submissions until November 15, 2024. We are providing a broad prompt that writers can interpret and be inspired by in limitless ways. PROMPT: In 2000 words or less, describe a time when you were part of  “a new beginning.” Winners will be notified within several weeks of the deadline.
