Thank you all for helping to make 2009 an excellent year for me. You have no idea how much your comments and support have meant, and I hope to parlay that into a fun and exciting 2010!
In November 2009, I signed up for the NaNoWriMo challenge and began writing my first original story. It is now a full-length novel called Contentment. I hope to be able to publish it this year, fingers, toes and yes, even legs crossed. I never would have had the guts to attempt such an undertaking without you, dear readers. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
I now have a website of my own: www.margaretethridge.com. I plan to use it as a place to post my original stories as well as some of my fan fiction. I hope that you will stop by for a visit!

This was wonderful! I can't believe its your first story. I loved this little glimpse into their lives. You have a way with detail that makes it so easy for the reader to feel a part of the scene. Thank you for sharing it!
Author's Response: You\'re welcome, and thank you for your review! I always like reading those one shots and wanted to give it a try myself, I\'m glad you liked it, thanks :)\r\n

What if Jim hadn't been able to get the card back during the Season 2 Christmas Party? What if someone reads that card? What if that person isn't Pam?
Some S2 angst and drama.

I really enjoyed this, and I'm looking forward to more. Dwight's log was cracking my up. Excellent work!
Author's Response: Thanks! I've only written Dwight once before and it's fun to try to get into his head. I appreciate your review. Thanks and I hope the rest of the story doesn't let you down.
Summary: Jim wasn't able to transfer out of Scranton after Casino Night. Where does he stand with Pam? And what happened while he was gone?

Of course, you already have most of my comments on this chapter, but just let me say that I love how raw and honest they were with each other up on the roof. I could feel their pain and confusion palpably. Great job!
Author's Response: Thanks so much as usual!

So much to love in this chapter. First, I love conflicted Jim, and his inner thoughts and jumbled feelings were spot on. Second, I was so happy that Pam asked for help making the bird coffin. Jim's reaction to each brush of her fingers was spine tingling. I hope that we get to see some of this unspoken awareness from Pam. I like how Pam is fining more and more courage to be straight forward with Jim and letting him know that he is important to her. I can't wait to see where you take us next!
Author's Response: Thanks hon!
Summary: "Now she's in a closet, and he's in hot water with the new boss, and the worst part is there's a new girl in Pam's chair, and Pam keeps calling and crying a little on the phone and he can't fix any of it."

Wow, what an interesting backstory you wove for Chloe, and heartbreakingly real. I liked how once Jim started talking, it all poured out of him. I was reading it as if I was hearing the rush of words. Loved that Pam was holding his hand by the end of it all, and that he called her out on it! Great job!
Author's Response: Thank you so much, that is exactly how I pictured it when I wrote it. Like once he started talking, it all just came out of him, as if he\'d been holding it inside for so long and now that he\'s talked about it - he can\'t stop!!!!\r\n\r\nYou\'re awesome, thanks!!!

I am still loving this story. Now how about letting these two crazy kids practice their lip reading skills on each other? Love how Ellie responded to Pam, and how Pam was the one to reassure Jim. This is great! Now get back to work!

Author's Response: Thanks. I think Jim probably had a lot going on his head at the time and I can see him being conflicted.

I had to laugh when I saw this crossover. I was a bit skeptical, but you did a great job with it. I had to laugh when Michael called Jess Fonzie. And Jim lowerin Michel's stool? Exxxcellent!
I'm trying to set my Luke love aside long enough to visualize the Lorelai-Jim set up, but that is very difficult for me. Over all, though, I have to say that I look forward to more. Nothing like having your two favorite worlds collide!

This was delectable. I love how befuddled Jim was in the beginning. Pam's serene calm was the perfect foil for his nervous excitement. And crawling from the bed to cover her injured foot? Well, I'd have his baby for that... Just don't tell my husband, okay?
