Bio:

I'm a 25 year old married woman. I enjoy writing (mostly fanfic), reading, movies, knitting, music, and talking to strangers.

I love Jim/Pam with every fiber of my being, but I'm open to other pairings if they're written believably. I live for broken hearts and angst, for unrequited love and paralyzing inner monologues, because I know it will all work out in the end.

I'm interested in beta reading for people but only if you're serious about having one. I'm never mean but I do strive for honesty.

Summary: Past Featured Story

Michael watched Pam through the blinds. She was so lucky, everyone always wanted to talk to her, hang out with her, be friends with her. Sometimes he wished he could be her. It would all be so easy if he was Pam.


Pam looked up to see Michael staring at her through the blinds. She smiled to herself before turning back to answering the phones. Sometimes she wondered what it was like to be Michael. It must be strange.


There's a rule of the universe. Never wonder the same thing at the same time as someone else. That's a karmic jinx.

Oh. Oh. Man.

I love it. I really enjoy desperate, haunted Jim and you wrote him very well! I liked the way you transitioned between the dreams and reality. I also really loved the way it ended. You didn't overdo Pam's explanation... it was succinct and said so much more than if she'd been verbose. 

Great job! 



Author's Response: Thank you!  Yeah for some reason I have a habit of making their declarations short and sweet.  And they're always asking each other for help.  Guess it's just how I roll ;-)  Glad you liked it!!! Thank you for reading and leaving a review!

Question: Do you want to know how much I loved this? Absolutely, you do.

This was adorable on so many levels, and it filled my heart with joy! Kevin was brilliant (I love him anyway, and was thrilled with his role in the premiere). Jim and Pam... I don't know what to say that hasn't already been said, but I adored this so much. 

Summary: Past Featured StoryThat first date, drunk on the roof of her building watching stars and airplanes, he talks about going away. Really short, random fluff. Set post "the Job" so no real spoilers for season four.

Oh, god. This story. How do you manage to fit so much emotion into 649 words? 

The amount of what he had been holding back, however, shocked him, and as he left Dwight that afternoon, he felt like he had been struck physically by the weight of it all. 

This is my favorite line -- the look on Jim's face when he left the stairwell was so raw and you could see how much he had suffered through. That kind of longing for someone, especially when it's (in your eyes) unrequited really can take its toll. 

This was beautiful and breathtaking and I am so glad you wrote it. You pack quite the punch there. :)

I usually avoid stories written in the second person but this really drew me in. Probably because 'Money' really demonstrated just how much Jim loves Pam, how much he has been aching for her, and your story mirrors that very well. I loved this!

Author's Response: This was my first 2nd person story as well, I just really wanted to get inside Jim's head for a while. He had a real breakthrough/honest moment in this episode. It's been a long time coming! I'm glad you enjoyed. 

Summary:

My (second?) contribution to the Money post-ep business.  Jim and Pam have dinner and something's a little off.

I love how, when you least expect it, Michael can be so intuitive, so oddly in touch with a situation that he actually has moments where he seems like a normal person. :) I find moments like that, with Michael so touching. :) 

And now. Pam has answered the door. What's going to happen?? Great job!!

Promises may not be real, but heartbeats are.

What a breathtaking line. Wonderful work!  

Summary: Pam's hands grew clammy and her mouth suddenly felt dry. She had to come up with something. There was no way that Jim was ever going to find out what she was really up to. There was just no way.

"TGIP. Thank God it's Pam!" = WIN.

Oh, I loved this story. So full of that painfully awkward 'does he really like me for me' that makes up all new relationships.

I love that they've known each other for years and years yet there is still so much about each other that they haven't discovered, even if it's their private dorky tendencies. Very, very cute story.



Author's Response: Thank you, heartcarved! I am so glad you liked it. I know the Pam we've seen on the show lately has seemed very secure, but I don't happen to think she got there overnight. Anyways, thanks so much for the review.
