redbird | what counts as "short"? (Reply)

I'm looking at a job opening. It looks like something I could do, and enjoy. They want two "short" writing samples. For the kind of work, the rassef FAQ seems like an obvious choice--but is it short enough? Read into Word (not my idea--theirs--all samples to be sent as Word or WordPerfect attachments) it's 9 pages; 1+8 really, the first being all the questions, without the answres. I figure my other sample is the Salon piece, because it's both good and something I sold professionally. That is short enough.
