DANCING WITH MYSELF • EDDIE MUNSON

A Huge Thank You! + Bonus Stories

Hey, everyone!

First of all, I just want to say thank you to all of you for reading my story and for sticking with me through all of the delays. I was dealing with some personal problems, so I took a break from writing in order to focus on my mental health. That's why the finale took so long to get posted. But I'm doing a lot better now 😊

Now, onto the next topic: I know a lot of you have expressed interest in more Eddie x Reader content. I do have other short stories planned with all of these characters. While I was writing this book, I had a lot of different scenarios pop into my head, but they didn't fit into the main story, so I decided I was going to post them all separately after the book was finished. Initially, I wasn't planning on putting them here because some of the stories might more mature, and I don't want to change the rating of this book. I also don't want to create a separate book because it overcomplicates things. I'd rather keep everything in one place so that it's easily accessible.

So, with that being said, here is my compromise: I will be posting the short stories here in this book. Most of them will take place after the finale. Some will be set in the past (middle school, early high school). Some will even follow the show timeline. Most of the stories will be pure fluff, but others might be more adult in nature. If I do write any smut (I've never written it before, and I kinda wanna see if I can do it), it will NOT be posted here. It will only be available on my Tumblr and on AO3.

Sound fair?

I hope so.

Anyway, I've compiled a list of all the story concepts I have so far. Please note, some of these ideas might not make it to the page. They may get incorporated into other fics or disregarded entirely. Let me know if you guys have any ideas, too!

Thanks again for reading! ❤️
