With so many tweets (one per minute?!?!) you're going to be filling all of your followers feeds and washing away tweets by anyone else they're following. Unless someone is specifically following to read the story, I'd expect people might unfollow during the coming days of text.

Although from the pov of publicity, it's probably already a success as it'll get people talking about it.
Yep. I heard about this on NPR yesterday. I'd put Egan on my sh*t list for sure now. I read a story by her recently (but even it was a marketing ploy, cause it was an excerpt from Goon Squad) and liked it so actually purchased the Goon Squad and another of her books but this latest stunt had put her on my DNR list.
