"Death of a Small Civil Servant?"
Upon seeing the title, Wei Long subconsciously assumed it was a detective short story. Given the open genre, it was no surprise to find content in that vein among the works submitted by the thirty short story authors.
He clicked on it.
Wei Long glanced at the word count and then froze.
One thousand eight hundred words?
He suspected he might be seeing things wrong.
Although short stories aren't necessarily lengthy and he even advised Chu Kuang that shorter was generally better and to avoid excessive word counts...
But isn't this a bit too short?
The whole piece is not even two thousand words?
I told him to keep it short, meaning around three to five thousand words!
Did Chu Kuang misunderstand my suggestion and intentionally minimize the word count —
Believing that the shorter, the better?
If it affects the quality of the work due to this misunderstanding, then it's all my fault. Wei Long couldn't help but hold his forehead.
