Certainly. I have written short stories of length fifty (50) and even six (6) words. So in my humble opinion, yes it most definitely can be done. However, it takes practice and application to write stories successfully at any given length. When I wrote stories of exactly fifty words, initially it was easy to overshot and lots of editing and re-editing was required to get them to the right length. After a few attempts, it became moderately easy to write to required length. If you are doing this for the first time, keep trying and do lots of editing, and eventually you find the stories fall out at the right length. Good luck with the competition!
