The plant turned out to be a disappointment for King. He eventually gave it up, after 6 chapters if I'm not mistaken.
I think the business model was flawed and to some extent it impacted on the quality of the work. When you release a story chapter by chapter, you can't make corrections anymore or decide that some chapter should come before rather than after. It was bound to be very linear. Of course to make a final judgement, the story should have been carried out to the end.
