you had no control over when you would read them.
They were coming at a pretty regular clip,
but as the story was building,
normally, as a reader, you control how fast you move through a text,
but in this case, The New Yorker did,
and they were sending you bit by bit by bit,
and you had this suspense of waiting for the next line.
Another great example of fiction
and the short story on Twitter,
Elliott Holt is an author who wrote a story called "Evidence."
It began with this tweet: "On November 28
at 10:13 p.m.,
a woman identified as Miranda Brown,
44, of Brooklyn, fell to her death
from the roof of a Manhattan hotel."
It begins in Elliott's voice,
but then Elliott's voice recedes,
and we hear the voices of Elsa, Margot and Simon,
characters that Elliott created on Twitter
specifically to tell this story,
a story from multiple perspectives
