Testimonials
What our readers are saying
"Thanks to Modern Serial, I have an accessible way to incorporate those unread classics into my daily routine."
“I love what you’re doing with Modern Serial. I think most email newsletters are…bullshit. But this one I really love.
It’s smart to meet people where they are. And we’re all always in our email. I like the cadence of it. I like how it says how long it’ll take me to read the email.”
“I'm really enjoying Little Fuzzy. I check my email more regularly in the morning because I’m looking forward to getting the next issue."
