Welcome Jason and Samantha!

They don't list a minimum. But I would hazard a guess a drabble would be a no, flash would likely be a hard sell for winning. Good question as to what is the shortest story to win.

It wasn't their cloud I was concerned with on that, it was there word processor. Though it does seem they have changed it. Everyone seems to say not to use Google Docs on the answer sites. When looking further, it seems though it looks OK it has formatting errors and can't handle more than 100 pages...

Do we have to use Google Docs? Have they removed the 'we own a % of what you create with it' clause from the Terms of Service? I have a fully functional copy of Word, and I reluctantly put things on Dropbox as it is, as I don't like Cloud storage at all.

Hhhmmm. Might work then. Last time I used Slack, I wasn't thrilled with it. But, if they've improved it, that could be good.

Welcome to even more new members! Happy writing everyone.

Would Slack really work for that? How would we share the MSes?

Ok; it has likely been a year since I have posted on this forum. I am attempting to balance family time, writing, and time on various forums. My first ebook was illustrated by a friend and posted to the Draft to Digital Web site. The book is about 200 pages containing 4 short stories about heroes w...

Rejection.

I signed the contract and the editor said it was safe to share, so here we go: Mad Scientist Journal put out a call for classified ads and are planning to publish my submission in March 2018. It's a 180ish word fictional classified ad, so I'm not sure if that falls into flash or an even smaller cat...

Congratulations!!

Well, the feedback I got from everybody convinced me even more it's a longer piece, so I'm definitely not making it in this quarter. I don't even know if when done it will still be within word count for this contest.

Welcome Carolyn.

Don't know if I'll make it in this quarter. I've submitted to my writer's group to get feedback, but I know I rushed the ending. In the end It might make into the next if I can keep it in the max word count. It seems to want to be at least a long novelette at it's shortest the more I think about it....

Welcome, Vince!

Welcome!

We have two more spammers. They posted in Business of Publishing.

Congratulations!

Still working on mine. The 450 exchanges were useful. Eep I still owe someone an annotated one, though they already have feedback. After I finish my story submitting it to my local writer's group Penny Dreadfuls for critique this month in time for an edit and submittal. By the way if anyone is local...

Welcome to all the new people.

I've sold a humorous flash piece to Empyreome. Thank you Randy!

Submitted to Joni via email, due to early closure of submission portal. Counted as the 31st.

I'm up to it. I have story originally started for this quarter before I had a dry spell after my Best Friend passed. I ended up cleaning up a submission that was rejected for an anthology for Q2 instead.

So, PM me the file and I'll see about PMing you mine.

I use chapters in my longer Novelettes. 10,000 or more words. I don't on anything shorter, I just use the scene break #.

By the way, this type of post would go under "Writing: Craft, Talent, Technique."
