Foray into the short story

So I started writing some short stories.  I have written four rough drafts for novels now, but haven't written any short stories for many years and nothing very structured.  I recently wrote this short story for Author Stand and last year I wrote another short story for PNWA and the really short story was so limiting that I had to make every word count.  I was cutting out words to make the story fit.  It was very frustrating.  I won't post last year's story, but the one I did for Author Stand I thought came out okay.  If you register with Author Stand you can download it for free here:   http://shop.authorstand.com/Products/5573-it-was-a-dark-and-stormy-night.aspx      I couldn't think of anything to write at first, so I wrote it about a writer with writer's block.  Do all writer's do this at some point?
