Do wish there were a chapter 2 here, but God that has to be even more heartbreaking for Jim. Like, unimaginably so.

nice twist SB!  Almost made me cry at my desk..

I always look forward to reading anything you write. I'm a big fan of yours.



Author's Response:

Thank you so much!  You are too kind. 

Wow, you almost cried.  That's quite a compliment!  Thanks for reading!

What an interesting twist on Casino Night.  I think that scenario would have been even angstier for Jim, if that's even possible!  So, does Roy call off the wedding instead of Pam in chapter two? LOL  It was such a treat to read another fanfic from you, SB.  I hope you'll do more!

Author's Response:

Thank you!  Even angstier!?  Probably, but my pour heart couldn't handle anymore than I dished out!  Thanks so much for reading.  I'm so glad you enjoyed it.  If a new idea pops into my head, I'll write another one. :-)

Chapter 2?!  Yikes!  I think I'll stick to one-shots until I get better at crafting storylines.  :-)

This was so beautifully sad.  I liked that Pam iniated the kiss and reading Jim's thoughts on the evening. Great job!

Author's Response: Thank you!  I was worried about Pam initiating the kiss, because it really isn't something she would do.  But I was hoping I fixed that problem by having Jim read Pam's motivation with their patented silent communication.  I guess it worked!  :-)

Wow, that was exquisite... some of the best romantic angst I've read. And, you really pegged why we love Jim so much... any man that can love a woman like that-- you can't help but fall in love with him a little. You wrote him brilliantly, and I love him even more after reading your story. Oh, yeah, and I was really impressed at the way you reversed the dialogue--what a clever idea! You really pulled it off and made it seem very natural. Very, very well done.

Author's Response:

Wow.  Thanks so much for your kind words.  I'm thrilled to hear the diaglogue sounded natural.  Even though reversing the dialogue was at the core of my inspiration, it was the biggest impediment as well.  It was a pain, but I like how it turned out.  It's good to know someone else like it, too!  Thanks again, for taking the time to write such a nice review.

 I love Jim, too.  But that goes without saying! :-)

Great job on this SB! I love the different take on the phone call. Excellent dialogue too. Write more!

Author's Response: Hey RC!  Thanks so much for reading.  The dialogue was the most difficult part of the whole thing.  It took days to piece it together!  I'm so glad to hear it worked!

Oh, sb!  That was beautiful.  The switch gave such a fresh outlook on Casino Night.  Your description of Jim's heartache was haunting.

Nice work, my friend!



Author's Response:

Thanks, Bees!  Oooooo, haunting.  I like it. :-) And there's that word I love again: Fresh.  Yay!  Just what I was hoping to hear.  Thanks for reading and reviewing!

Are you writing anything soon?? ;-)  I love your stuff!

Heartbreakingly beautiful.  Yes, Casino Night has been done a million times over but this felt fresh.  Can't wait for more from you!

Author's Response: Thank you so much!  I was afraid of writing a redundant piece, so it was important to me to try and create something with a different twist and feel.  I'm thrilled to hear it felt "fresh."  :-)

So sad but so good.  Nice job.

Author's Response:

Thank you.  I didn't mean for it to be so sad, but I guess it had to be.  Jim's little tear in the parking lot breaks my heart every time I see it.  I had to bring it back!

it was way good...loved how you used her dialogue for him...can't wait to read more of your work!

Author's Response:

Thank you!  The dialogue idea has been in my head for a long time.  Glad you liked it.  :-)

SB....so much angst, but done so well! 

Author's Response:

Thank you!  I usually don't write such angsty material, but this story just came pouring out of me.  Thanks for reading.

Nice switcharoo there.

This is so heartbreaking  just as like Casino Night. Especially the end, but you wrote it all beautifully



Author's Response:

Thanks so much!  I was nervous about posting such an angsty story, but it wouldn't leave my head until I wrote it.  Glad you enjoyed it.
