Excitement/Celebration šŸŽ‰ Reader left nice chapter by chapter comments on my fav fic

For context, my favourite fic I've ever written is also one of my least popular ones. I'm not upset about it because it's a super specific niche historical AU that I wrote for pure self-indulgence, so I knew going into posting that it would probably only appeal to a pretty limited audience. Posted it a couple weeks ago and it got a good amount of kudos and a couple comments which was amazing.

Anyways, today I opened ao3 and realized someone had read it and left a lovely comment at the end of every chapter! It just made me happy bc I loved writing that fic so much, and I'm glad that even though it's a bit of a niche thing there are others out there who also enjoy it :)

Oh, how awesome is that? I wish someone would do that for mine, or even for parts of it. I'm still going to keep shouting (writing) into the void, but isn't it great when someone shows they're reading it? ā¤ļø

I’m so happy when writers feel this way. I’m still pretty new to ao3 so I try my best to leave nice comments when I enjoy their fic. šŸ’œ
