Would it have been worth while, To have bitten off the matter with a smile, To have squeezed the universe into a ball To roll it toward some overwhelming question To say: "I am Lazarus, come from the dead, Come back to tell you all, I shall tell you all"

whats the word limit? I've seen flash fictions limits vary from 250 - 1000 depending on who's talking about it.

I meant that it was only considered flash fiction up to 250 words, where others say its flash fiction up to 1,000

I believe that if there were a limit on words, Sana would have been wise enough to include those parameters. Since nothing was said about length (why do guys always worry about size?), nothing was said. Nothing was said about what color the printing should be, but we won't niggle about that either. Nor how it should be formatted. Nor if bribes were to be included... But you're -- ahem -- Losing time, and since the theme is Loss, you are doing quite well to be thinking along these lines.

I would say the more you can do with the least amount of words the more we may be impressed. I would still leave it open for Sana to suggest a limit if she wishes. I mean come on guys. Flash fiction is flash fiction.
