::Evil laughter and thunder cracks:: Oh I indeed write longer works. I've written entire novels. The published ones are over on Smashwords and the ones still needing refinement can be viewed on my Patreon.

As for how short these stories get - I try to aim for a minimum of four paragraphs. If everyone died, it would have been way shorter than that and very sad as well. Not a winner as far as I'm concerned.
