There has been a 10kb minimum established for stories posted to the Library and some people (that would mean me) have protested to Jinn when he ignored the minimum. My experience with the Library posts has been that I have yet to see one under 10k (or much under 20k) that was worth my effort.

ON THE OTHER HAND, I just finished reading a 3k and a 1.3k story posted to threads in this Forum and was very impressed. I realize that your audience size would be about a tenth of what it is in the Library (and no formal critiquing process), but if you wish to post short-shorts here in the Forum, we'd love to read them (just be careful which sub-forum you post to).
