I hope you're still planning on continuing this! I love it! :)

Author's Response: Thanks! I definitely am. I just have the tendency to get stuck. I've got a project due for school tomorrow, so I'm hoping to have time after that to just sit, think things through, and write for a while. The first half is written, though. :)

Pssh, I know what you mean about feeling like a terrible writer. You have the ideas but trying to flesh them out can be a real struggle.

But honestly, I'd wait a long time to keep getting chapters of this quality. I can literally feel Pam's nausea and Jim's anxiety. While I've never been pregnant myself, I still know that pregnancy isn't always this glowing, amazing experience. It's tough and makes you feel like crap (especially if you're uncertain about the whole having a baby thing anyway) and I think you've captured that perfectly without it bordering on melodrama or too much angst. Well deserving of the blue ribbon!

I cannot begin to tell you how far I am sucked into this story. It is amazingly well written and so in character, it may be one of the best stories I've read here. I can hear each voice in my head as they figure out that Pam's pregnant. I'm going to be looking out for an update every day until it's posted.

Congrats on the blue ribbon, so well deserved! I haven't been around these parts lately, so please forgive me for the lateness in reviewing. This chapter came out perfectly! I'm really blown away by how spot on your characterization is and how seamless this story is. Lovely, well written and totally in character - what more could I ask for? I look forward to more!

What a thrill to see an update to this, more_awake! Your characterizations are excellent IMHO, and this chap runs the gamut of emotions--just like a pregnancy.  I suspect you're your own worst critic.  I hope you can see your way to another update really soon, because I love this story and I'm really greedy :D

Your characterization is so spot-on. I could easily picture all of this. Love everyone injecting their own little comment. "Birth control, man" = LOL! Poor Pam. And Jim. This was just a perfect update. Looking forward to more!

Glad to see this updated. I forgot about this story, and it's great. I just had to re-read it from the beginning! You've got a great bead on the characters; this feels very authentic. It's quite a mix of emotions, and you're capturing it all. I also love all the reactions in the office. "Spawning Tuna!" Awesome. :D Hope the writing bug stays with you, I am loving this story.
