Re: How Short Is Too Short?
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.

Re: Writer's Group
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.

Re: Success!
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...

Re: First Four-Fifty Critique Exchanges
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.

That is extreme!! And since what they did is illegal, do pursue legal action. Glad you were able to fix it.
