I subscribe to various short story keywords through Talkwalker, and this story came up saying that if I liked "The Umbrella Man," then I would like "The Ferris Wheel." Since I just read Roald Dahl's "The Umbrella Man" the other day, and I'm not one to argue with an algorithm that can personally suggest short stories, I clicked.
Turns out "The Umbrella Man" was not what I thought, but "The Ferris Wheel" turned out to be a fun adventure anyway! This has to be the must curious way I've discoved an author yet, but you've got yourself another subscriber :)
Bless you, Bill! I heard this morning that a good old friend has cancer. Don't know the details yet, but reading your story this afternoon is making my heart swell with hope. It's only 2023, but I'm praying ....
Great story! I really enjoyed it.
Ooooow, so nice. I've been there, both 1893 and 2026. Thank you, Bill!
Wonderful. The abducted 19th century folks reacted as I suspected they would.

That was a wild ride.
I guess I am a sentimental old fool. I liked it.
