Summary:

Inspired by a mean old threat from the always glorious Moxie. Show us your worst: literally -- create an absolutely horrid Office fanfic, and share it with us. Remember the DVD commentary from "The Alliance," which remarked that Steve Carell has a very cool job because he needs to spend a freakish amount of time coming up with jokes that aren't funny......now you can, too!

Summary:

Dwight once said to Jim, "I bet if you tried, you could grow the best beard of anyone in this office." And as we know JKras can indeed grow a great beard, so I challenge you to write a story centered around Jim growing a beard (and Pam's reaction to it ;-) ). Set it during any time-frame, post-series is always welcome because there just needs to be more post series fics, but sometime during the series may also be fun. And here's some visual references if you need them .

Suggested by Sally_Halpert.

I’d love to read a Jim and Pam bubble bath fic. Make of that what you want, it doesn’t have to be smutty - it could be cute. Hell it doesn’t even have to be Jim AND Pam, it could be Jim giving their baby their first bath or Jim running Pam a bubble bath after a crappy day… see, I’m not fussy.

What was Pam going to ask Jim after the Dundies, before she remembered the cameras? What happens in an alternate universe when she actually asks it?

Summary: Jim & Pam get caught in the act, whatever that might be: playing a prank on Dwight, making fun of Michael, making out in the parking lot,... Jim & Pam are so sneaky and snarky, but something is bound to bounce back in their face at some point.

What if Conan O'Brien had stayed in the office instead of going to the Emmys? Would he get a job, if any, at Dunder-Mifflin? Would Jim get jealous of Conan and Pam's sexual tension? Would Dwight plot revenge on Jim for making Conan fall out of the ceiling?

Summary:

The show ended with hours of deleted scenes, and with them countless story opportunities! Write a story that expands on a deleted scene in some way. Keep it canon-compliant or use the deleted scene as a jump-off to a whole canon-divergent story. (If you don't have the DVDs, we have posted some of the more JAMmy deleted scenes to our Tumblr )

Summary:

suggested by Eers02

Jim asking Pam's dad (or mom and dad together) for Pam's hand in marriage. I think it was mentioned in a few of the post-WL stories, but I want to read about the event itself. You know Jim is the romantic type of guy who would do such a thing. Did he pop the question to her folks on the sly when Pam was around, or while she was away at Pratt? Via phone call or visit in person? How would they react after their daughter's first never-ending engagement?/Remember, Pam's folks supposedly live a few hours away from Scranton, so it would be extra effort for Jim to drive all the way to wherever-it-is to ask.
