"On Writing" also contains short stories; some ranging from 12 pages to 24+ pages.

Does it even matter? A story is a story.

Stephen King's written stories only 9 pages long,
sometimes magazines & trade markets look for stories no longer than 3.
there's a subgenre called 'flash story', no longer than 600 words.
