The papers came out in due course, serially, and created a new sensation and brought their little reward, but they also plunged their author into a succession of unsavory quarrels.

She wore them serially as they came from the row of hangers in her closet. Now she began to acquire some dressier things, wearing them even during her shopping trips. James paid little attention to this change in his housekeeper's routine, but he approved. Mrs.
A novel, for instance, may have a large circulation in a magazine; it may then appear in a book; it may reach other readers serially again in the columns of a newspaper; it may be offered again in all the by-ways by subscription, and yet not nearly exhaust its legitimate running power.
