This really is magnificent. You have such a finely tuned ear for their personalities and their nuance that it's like I can hear the pitche-perfect dialogue in their voices. Beautifully, beautifully done.

Author's Response: Shassafrass, I am so pleased that you felt you could hear their voices in the dialogue. I struggled so hard, especially with the last chapter, to make sure things felt... real. I'm thrilled you enjoyed it. Thank you for taking the time to comment.

Summary: Past Featured Story

What if Pam refused to let Angela drop her off at home after the Dundies?

“I want to go to Jim’s,” Pam said, interrupting Angela’s thoughts.

Angela felt as though her head might pop off and land in one of her cup holders. Would the depravity of this night never end?

Wow. You are astonishingly good at capturing their voices, their nuance. Not to mention how well you grip a reader by the throat and don't let go until they're all squishy and amoeba-like. Holy mackerel. I really don't want this one to end.

Author's Response: Oh wow. Thanks Shass! I'm a dork and usually find myself playing the dialogue out in my head until it sounds authentic. Like I said, doooork.

You continue to thrill me. I love how well you know these characters and how faithful you are to them. Your writing is wonderful and so finely tuned. I always have this sweet ache everytime I read your stories and I hate when the page scroll bar nears the bottom because I know it'll be over way too soon.

Author's Response:

I'm so glad to hear that you're enjoying this, really.  As I told Starry Dreamer, this one is so heavy on the interior monologue with really very little suspense that -- after the fun of writing Climbing As We Fall, which was heavy on the tension (which I love writing) -- I've worried that this one's a bit slower.  So it's really nice to hear that there are people reading and enjoying it.  :o)

Thanks for reviewing!

the upwards fall by Bennie Rated: M [Reviews - 6] 2
Summary: It's too bad, really, that he's Michael and she's Pam (and sick with some unknown -itis that may be female troubles but really is the fact that she had sex with Ryan last night), because Michael always knows where to get the best cookies. Sequel to No Longer In Service. For DinkinFlicka.
