Serial Reader is seven years old today! 🎉 It’s a long way from the dinky prototype I used to read My Antonia on my train commutes https://www.serialreader.org/blog/seven-year-anniversary/

I had completely forgotten one of the early adopters of #SerialReader was Debra Messing 😳 life is wild sometimes

“‘Holmes!’ I cried. ‘Is it really you?’”

New book now available: "A Journey in Other Worlds" by John Jacob Astor (1894) - 29 issues. (Yes, *that* wealthy Astor who would later perish in the Titanic)

A vision of the far off future in the year 2000 with speculation on telephones, solar power, air travel, and adjusting the tilt of the Earth. Plus blood-sucking bats on Jupiter!

The Public Domain Review has more on the book: https://publicdomainreview.org/collection/a-journey-in-other-worlds-a-romance-of-the-future-1894
