Summary: Past Featured Story


NOW COMPLETE!!!

"Jim, why don't you tell Pam how you really feel?" 

 Jim and Pam deal with the stuff that comes with being on a hit show...talk shows, radio call-ins, and press junkets. They say there's no such thing as bad publicity, but is that really the case? Watch as Jim and Pam deal with being in the public eye and under the thumb of manipulative network producers. The story is told through interviews, transcripts, web pages and photos.

I've been thinking that Jim & Karen were faking their relationship ... BUT I thought that Jim & Pam were secretly together.  I like the tension of the situation you've created much better!  And that Karen is a turncoat actress – well, that is just a delicious twist!  Cannot wait to read the last interview.

Author's Response:

Hey VB...I actually thought about having jim and pam carrying on in secret, but I couldn't make it work.  Thanks so much for your review.  I know I'm behind on Cardiac Care, but that is probably my favorite story these days.  Thanks again for your feedback!

OK, so here I am in South Africa on vacation.  (Long way from Maryland!)  I have a few extra internet minutes and decided to check MTT.  I am so excited to see that you finished your story!  I have loved every chapter.

Probably running out of time now, so I should post quickly!

Very literary!  I love it!  Not only did you do the parody well, you perfectly captured each of the characters you chose to write.  My personal favorite is the end of PAM.

Forgive me
you were being an ass
I was bored
and I knew he would appreciate it

I never thought about Pam's doing that little sketch to amuse/catch the attention of Jim.  But it would be perfect.



Author's Response:

Me? Literary?! *twirls* Thank you!  I was hoping people would catch on to the he in the last bit of Pam's poem.

I just love this!  I think you got Jim's thoughts & interaction with Pam just right.  Love that he belatedly remembers Hank at the end.

Author's Response: Thanks! Yeah, I was wondering at what point he shot out of bed thinking \"Oh crap!\"

Summary: How a little courage and honesty finally gave them both what they wanted.

Callisto, this is just GORGEOUS!  I love the contemplative mood you strike with both characters.  Good dialog.  Good pacing.  I anxiously await another chapter from Jim's perspective!

Author's Response: Thank you VB! What a nice compliment. I\'m working on it...but when I originally wrote this I kind of just putzed out after that first night and never really wrote a conclusion...so, let\'s see if I can figure out a good way to wrap it up. Thanks for reading, and taking the time to give feedback. Very empowering!

Date: April 29, 2008 Title: Chapter 3: and sings the tune--without the words

OK, I looked for the Emily Dickinson poem.  Hope has 12 lines.  If you're taking a line per chapter title, that must mean we get 12 chapters!  Yay!

This is just beautiful!  Can't even pick a favorite line because it's all so good.  You have a fine voice and define the characters really well.



Author's Response: Um...yeah...about that...I wasn\'t thinking of getting past the first stanza, but...well, we\'ll see what I can come up with! Probably done after the next one though. Thanks again for the kind words. Constructive compliments make my day :)

Reviewer: Vampiric Blood Signed
Date: April 29, 2008 Title: Chapter 1: Hope is the thing with feathers

Oh no!  Unacceptable!  Your readers are all totally enraptured, like me, I'm sure!  We want 12 chapters.  One for every line of the poem.  Three stanzas!  Can we take a poll?

Author's Response: Really?

Reviewer: Vampiric Blood Signed
Date: May 01, 2008 Title: Chapter 3: and sings the tune--without the words

Slow day today, not much new ... so I reread this story.  I just love how you have made Pam the aggressor here.  That she's got Jim half undressed while she's still fully clothed. 

Favorite line that makes me smile every time I read it:

I’d waited how many years and now I have stage fright?

Yup, I'm voting for nine, count them nine, more chapters.



Author's Response: I\'ll come back to this one VB...want to finish up my other one first. I promise there will be more though. Thanks for the encouragement!

Date: May 14, 2008 Title: Chapter 4: and never stops at all

Well, I am SO glad to see chapter 4 is posted and the TOC does not say "Complete!"  Another fine chapter.

Author's Response: This chapter was probably not my best effort, but thanks for sticking with me and keeping my confidence up :)

Date: May 19, 2008 Title: Chapter 5: and sweetest in the gale is heard

You are most DEFINITELY one of my favorite authors now!!!  I cannot believe how deftly you are flipping back and forth between Pam & Jim in these chapters.  I love Jim's nascent confidence in the relationship alternating with moments of sheer terror.

Too much great text to pick favorite sections.  Keep it coming!



Author's Response: Aw shucks. :D Seriously, thanks a bunch, and it\'s all due to you. If you and NanReg hadn\'t pushed i wouldn\'t have bothered adding to this, but I\'m having a lot of fun with it. Not really sure exactly where it\'s going to end, just letting it write itself, but I\'ve got the basic idea down for the next one. But I learned my lesson from chp. 4 and will not be rushing it.

Great chapter!  I love the family you created for Jim.  And his running commentary is nothing short of outstanding!

Dunno about Night Out confirming Pam's QB abilities, though.  She was at pretty close range when she nailed Meredith in the ear!



Author's Response: Thanks VB. You know I would never have continued with this if you hadn\'t prodded me. And I still say Meredith is a magnet for accidents.

Date: June 07, 2008 Title: Chapter 1: Hope is the thing with feathers

Well, in my family, we have a great tradition of forcing each other to admit You were right!  I had been planning to leave another review gloating just a bit that you'd been so unsure that this story had more than four chapters in it and ...  I was right!

But you beat me to the punch!  I'm so glad you allowed yourself to be persuaded that there really should be ... ahem! ... TWELVE chapters to this story!  I am loving every chapter and anxiously await the next post!



Author's Response: Thanks again VB. So, ahem...you were right! I\'m glad you\'re enjoying it. But please don\'t throw garbage at me if I work on some other stuff while I figure out where I want to go with this one. :)

Ooh, callisto!  This chapter is simply PERFECT.  I love the dialog, the meeting with Roy where Jim finally gets to see something of what attracted Pam to him, the glimpse of the future.  You have such a firm grasp of their characters and the way they interact.

 I hope your paper went as well!

I like this premise that Jim planned the whole wedding for Pam.  After the fiasco with Roy, it seems like such a sweet gesture.  Looking forward to the wedding...

Just reread this again tonight.  This is one of the most gorgeous things I have ever read on MTT.  I just love how Pam makes new memories of the summer house for Jim.  I love the inner voice you've created for her.  Love the history of their relationship that you wove.

LOVE.  IT.  ALL.



Author's Response: Hey VB! I\'m glad you liked it. Loved it, even! This is still my favorite of the ones I\'ve written so far. Thanks for your reviews and encouragement. :D

Very nice vignette.  I love the closing phrase, just lovely: 

one apartment that cradles their lives in its brick and plaster palms

Reviewer: Vampiric Blood Signed
Date: March 05, 2011 Title: Chapter 1: Chapter 1

There’s one set of apologies for being absent to the morning meeting and one mismatched selection of dishware and one tube of toothpaste and one apartment that cradles their lives in its brick and plaster palms.

Sigh ... I just love that.

This was NOT what I was expecting!  Having Pam gone is a great twist in the plotline.  Looking forward to more!



Author's Response: I didn\'t want to make it TOO easy for Jim! He still has some stuff to figure out before he can make things right with Pam, methinks. Thanks for the review! Glad you liked it!
