Molly Barton loves books. She also loves TV. Since so much must-see-TV these days is being taken from books (see The Handmaid's Tale, Game of Thrones, Big Little Lies, 13 Reasons Why, American Gods...), she thought "what if we make books more like TV?" Inspired by the Netflix and HBO lineups, she co-founded Serial Box, a website and iOS app that produces original fiction that reads like watching a TV show. Serials are written by a writers room, and released in seasons of 13 episodes, just like a TV show. Weekly episodes pack a punch with only a 40-minute read-time or 60+-minute listen-time. The app even allows you to toggle back and forth between reading or listening.
