The connection between cold feet/Pam's hesitance and Pam's growth literally culminating in a coal walk desperately needed to be made. That's genius.
Author's Response: Oh, thank you! I feel like it couldn't have been a coincidence, right? No more cold feet for Pam, who is finally being brave.

This was pretty cool. I can't quite say what I love about it, but, it still is cool. And that is why its a short review.
Author's Response: This may be the shortest review you've ever left me. I'm glad you enjoyed it!

"The fire had burned her skin, and her declaration had left her cheeks rosy with a flush of excitement that she thought might never fade". This was a beautiful story. I love Pam's reaction to her declaration.
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I think the firewalk was the defining moment for Pam, even more than cancelling her wedding.

You know, I never made the connection between her cold feet and walking on coals, but having read this, I'm almost certain it wasn't an accident. This was terrific - love the metaphor you're sustaining throughout.
Beautiful, understated, succinct - as usual! You ROCK.
Author's Response: Thank you! It seems like a silly metaphor for them to use, but it just resonated with me. "As usual" is just such a lovely thing to say. YOU rock. Thanks again!

Beautiful and joyful, just like Pam's big moment!

Aw! This was really sweet. I love that she's so happy in the end. That's such a good way to link her speech with the bus ride, which I was having trouble connecting at first. Loved it!
Author's Response: I'm actually one who thinks the final bus ride was supposed to be a flashback (like the end of Diwali, for example), but I thought she looked positively joyful when she skipped out of the circle to walk in the water. Thank you so very much!

Beautiful imagery. I love the many interpretations of "cold feet" and how you played with them all. No socks! Yay!
Author's Response: Pam is officially sock-free! Woo! (Thank you!)

That's an interesting metaphor I hadn't thought about. This was a great piece. Team Pam! :)
Author's Response: Oh, thank you!! Yeah, I'm all about the odd metaphor. Go Team Pam!!

That was totally fab. Short but sweet. I love Pam's introspection, and the way you summed everything up so succinctly. Great job.
Author's Response: Thank you! I love writing Pam POV.

Wow -- great metaphor! Go Pam!
Author's Response: Thank you! I was worried about Pam's poor feet, but I think they'll be fine.

Very Pam. I totally can see her wearing socks to bed with Roy but I doubt she would with Jim. ;)
Author's Response: Hee. Well, maybe socks, but maybe not much else!
