Oh no! This just died out! It was so good, and I was totally into it. :(

Great to see this back! I like the 2 timeframes....but if I'm honest I'm definitely finding the one in the present more gripping right now simply because I want to see how she and Jim will react to meeting
Cant wait for next chapter!

I'm here! I'm here! Glad to see you're back! I stop by every once in a while. Keep it up! I want to hear Jim's back story.
Date: August 04, 2011 07:33 am Title: "Nah, I just wanted an excuse to do a little vandalism."
YES! YES!!!!! ::jumps for joy:: Kestrel, you're back! I think of this story now and again, feeling sad that it's been languishing...and here you are!!!! Most definitely better late than never :D I loved this story from the start. I hope you're feeling creative, because I'm dying to read more.
Date: March 04, 2010 02:26 pm Title: "We'll see how many people we can confuse."
Interesting. I hope we'll hear more about how Jeremy & Pam became publishing partners. (And, BTW, what's Jeremy's nom de plume?)
And why are Jim's eyes HARD and hazel? Man, he'd better be nice to Estella!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!! My heart's in my throat. I'm swept up by this story and it's originality and delicious tension. You're spoiling me, Kestrel, with this wonderfully quick update! I'm at the edge of my seat! I'm envisioning Cinderella about to take flight, leaving that glass slipper behind ; )
Date: March 03, 2010 03:59 pm Title: "We'll see how many people we can confuse."
Now. Continue now. Must know what happens...
Author's Response: I'll do my best!

I have absolutely no idea where you are going with this. But I'm looking forward to seeing the next chapter!
;-)
Author's Response: Haha, it's up pretty fast. I think my main motivation to write is you and NanReg :)
Date: March 02, 2010 09:10 am Title: "Call me Morrie. Call me Ishmael. Just tell me what you want to drink."
Kestrel, I saw this update and thought, "Could it be?! No! Yes!!! It is!!!!!!" I remember this fic. I remember loving it...and then it slipped my mind. So very happy you were able to update. It's such an intriguing story. It tries my patience, but I'm willing to wait ; ) In addition to Pam and Jim, obviously, I want to learn more about the characters you've created and their back stories. I hope your inspiration stays with you.
Author's Response: I know! It's me!! I've been having a lot of fun with some of the new characters I've made; I'm glad you like it. And I added chapter 5 up real quick just for you and VB :).
Date: October 22, 2008 10:50 pm Title: "Tell them I got sick. Or kidnapped."
I like it I like it! For some reason Jeremy (in my head) has that voice Philip Seymour Hoffman uses in movies like Cold Mountain or Talented Mr. Ripley :) I like him! Keep updating ;-)
Date: October 18, 2008 01:51 pm Title: "Tell them I got sick. Or kidnapped."
Ahh!! This is so intriguing. I hope you update soon.
Date: October 18, 2008 09:27 am Title: "Tell them I got sick. Or kidnapped."
Such a tease, Kestrel! Now I'm all anxious waiting for the next chap--so don't let me down ; ) Glad you're inspired. I was missing this story.
Date: October 18, 2008 08:06 am Title: "Tell them I got sick. Or kidnapped."
Yay! I'm glad that there is more of this. I remember reading the first two parts awhile ago and wondering if it would be updated.
This is a very interesting look at Pam's life if she'd left, too. I like that you have her changing in ways that are similar to how she changed on the show, but maybe a little... faster. And farther, I guess?
She'll run into Jim, right? Please? :)

I can't help but feel sad reading this story, that they didn't even have a chnance to re-connect after CN. Hopefully things get better
Date: September 23, 2008 07:09 pm Title: "It's a lot to take in, isn't it?"
"But the strange new pieces of her life didn’t seem to have room for him."
That was heart breaking. I'm hooked - anxious to read the next one.
PS I didn't notice any rusty-ness at all!
Date: September 23, 2008 07:04 pm Title: "Frankly, it's a little surreal."
Very intriguing beginning, I can't wait to see where this goes and to read more about Prince Charming...
Date: September 14, 2008 09:42 am Title: "It's a lot to take in, isn't it?"
Well, you don't really seem to be rusty! I like the idea and I'm looking forward to the next update.
Date: September 14, 2008 08:47 am Title: "It's a lot to take in, isn't it?"
Well - nothing like a nice, brisk flurry of writing to knock that rust off! I suggest you write MORE...SOON...and you will be nicely warmed up. (Does this count as begging?) Just in case you missed it - I loved this! Please don't leave us hanging too long.
Date: September 14, 2008 08:00 am Title: "It's a lot to take in, isn't it?"
This is gorgeous. I love the idea that Pam builds a new life full of color and beauty but still has tht old ache for him. And I can't wait to see how she ends up with Jeremy in her expensive shoes. Great work so far!
Date: September 13, 2008 07:26 pm Title: "It's a lot to take in, isn't it?"
Kestrel, this is so lovely and I'm really glad you're continuing with it.
This paragraph is especially fine: “I finally got the nerve to walk her home from church one day, and before we knew it I was walking her to our own little house.” Pam loved the inevitability of their courtship, its plainness like whorled wood. She pictured long skirts and sweet, almost-smiles, and maybe linked hands and wildflowers.
I hope we hear more from you soon.
Date: July 16, 2008 08:25 pm Title: "Frankly, it's a little surreal."
I would LOVE to see where this is going. please continue.
Date: July 13, 2008 04:29 pm Title: "Frankly, it's a little surreal."
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!! Damn straight I want to see where this is going!
The crowd joined and parted endlessly, a sort of human kaleidoscope. Beautifuly imagery. Kestrel strikes again.
More soon, please!
Date: July 13, 2008 01:40 pm Title: "Frankly, it's a little surreal."
Yes please!
Date: July 13, 2008 01:32 pm Title: "Frankly, it's a little surreal."
Of course we want to see where this is going!! Always love to see where you take a tale. Looking forward to the next chapter! Can't imagine what would bring Prince Charming to this soiree! It'll be good, though, I'm confident!
