All A Joke (Eren X Reader) {Modern AU}

Not An Update

You guys don't have to read this. It has nothing pertaining to the story, if you don't continue, no hard feelings. See you in the next update!!! <3 <3 :) 

I don't mean to get all sappy on you guys and I was thinking of making this a potential author's note at the very end of this story but I want to do it now to express what I am feeling right now. 

I want to express how grateful I am towards all of you who are reading my story and have commented, who has voted, who have just shared it by putting it into their reading list. And shout of to that girl who posted it on TikTok a while ago. I had no idea until there were comments saying "Here from tik tok." I got so confused.

When I first started writing this story it was a coping mechanism. It is my first year of college and I'm living away from my family for the first time. I struggled finding myself and decided to just write what came to mind. I had no intentions of posting this story. That was until i got deep into it and kept writing chapter after chapter.

As I had said, this story became a coping mechanism for me, I had grown depressed and unmotivated in my school work for a while and to decompress I would write. And all honestly, I didn't see this story taking off. It started off with like 4 people coming back every update and making me feel so good about what I was putting out there. For once, I was proud about something I had done. I had never really been good with words so I was scared as to what people would say. I would get scared when I post a chapter cause I would think "Oh, does this make sense?" or something like "Does this sound good?"

Then this story got more traction. People were commenting and saying such positive things about what I was writing. And that really made me feel good. I know I am not very public on here I don't like giving details on my personal life... But yall I've been struggling to stay happy lately. But because of you guys, the ones reading, the ones commenting, the ones upvoting, the ones sharing, and all that good stuff, you guys have made me so freaking happy. And trust me, I read every single comment cause I want to know what you guys are reacting to. I want to know what you guys like and dislike about this story or something that happens. It really keeps me going. 

I remember on the night of the super bowl, Feb 7 2021, I fed y'all so many chapters. I had them lined up and I really had no intentions of posting 10 chapters that day but Y'all were eating them up so quickly I had to. This was the first super bowl sunday I had ever spent alone, My roommate had gone home to her family and I decided to not go home that weekend. I don't really handle being alone all that well. And I found comfort in the motivation you guys were bringing me. Being away from my family has been really tough on me and something I have needed to adjust to. The Weeknd's song Blinding Lights holds a special place in my heart because that is the song me and my little brother listen to together whenever I am driving, And I got emotional that night and sort of just bottled it all in. 

Posting chapters that day made me feel so good and forget that I was alone. I felt so happy to have such a great audience and such kind people reading my story. Even tough y'all didn't like the buttercup line. I promise that wont make a comeback LMAO. 

What I am really trying to say is I am so so very grateful for each and every single one of you. I appreciate the time and effort you all take out of your busy day, busy week, busy life to give my story a go. You could have scrolled by and chose the next story over, but I am so very thankful that you decided to read this story. From the bottom of my heart, Thank You for making me feel not so alone. And for making my college experience just a little easier. It means the absolute world to me. 

And to those who have sent me messages, thank you so much for your kindness and for reaching out. It means so much to hear stuff one on one like that. And I will always give feedback on your story if you ask for it. Just know, I'm just a college freshman who decided to write as a coping mechanism. This was my comfort. I don't even believe Im all that great of a writer, but you guys have made me confident in my writing ablitlies. 

Every single one of you put a smile on my face so thank you for all that you have done and please continue to be awesome and the kind souls you all are. (Even if yall are in the first few chapters roasting and wanting to beat up some of the characters.) You all mean so much to me. Y'all didn't have to comment, or vote, but I am really glad that you guys did. 

I'm sorry this is such a long thing to read. I'm just feeling a lot of positive emotions right now. 

Once again, thank you so very much for all that you guys do. Please continue to spread love and kindness to other authors and your fellow readers. Stay awesome all! 

I love you guys. :) 

Next chapter will either be released at like 3 am like it often is or sometime tomorrow. LMAO
