Bio:
While rewatching the Office in the Winter of 2017-2018, I fell back in love with the characters and the story. The subtlety in the relationships and the brilliant and true to life performances of the actors that were lost on me when I was younger now resonate with me and drive me to writing fan fiction. :)

Holy fuck. I'm terrified.

Summary:

An AU Casino Night Fic. What if Jim and Pam had talked more after Jim's confession in the parking lot?

Great job! I can't wait to read your next work!

Author's Response: Thanks so much! I'm currently in the very beginning stages of a piece that takes place after Pam gives Jim advice on how to handle the Karen getting an apartment situation and Dwight finds her crying.

Summary:

Pam calls off her wedding. Roy loses it. Jim's in Stamford, but not for long. 

A hospital stay and the recovery afterward, almost entirely from Jim's POV. Earnest and fluffy and sweet, with a side of steam for dessert. Tons of inner monologue, lots of dialogue, dramatic with plenty of humor sprinkled throughout.

I loved this story. I just finished reading it the second time through. I loved your exploration of Jim through the list. KMS probably just seems like such a realistic thing for Jim to feel and write in that position. I loved the mugshot. I loved Pam's reaction to seeing Jim. It all feels very in character. I loved it.

I was going to wait until I finished reading this to review, but seeing as you're a review white, I'll just leave two. :) I love how much agency Pam has in this story. She's making her own decisions and being the awesome strong woman we usually don't start to see until season three. It's also wonderfully written and hard to put down. Great job.

Summary:

Just as quickly as life can give you everything you've ever wanted, it can take it away on a dime. When tragedy strikes, will Jim and Pam's love be able to stand the tests?

Set during the summer between S2/S3. 

For those of you who watched Lost or Once Upon a Time, the theme of flashbacks will be heavily played with in this one :)

Keep going! I want to read more. :)

Author's Response: Thanks! I've got high hopes for this one :)

Date: June 25, 2018 Title: Chapter 10: Chapter 10

You did such a great job with making the dialogue seem real and from those characters. Jim was spot on. I'm so excited to read more!

Author's Response: Thank you! It's always important to me to keep them in character so it's nice to see that it's working :)

Summary:

When Roy attacks Jim in the office, it isn't his first time hurting someone. Pam acts odd during her apology to Jim, and for the first time since the merger, he can't bring himself to ignore it. A two or three part AU based around “Cocktails” (S3,E18) and “The Negotiation” (S3, E19).

This is such a bad summary, I promise the story is better!

Date: July 13, 2018 Title: Chapter 3: Honest

Partially due to my own experiences and knowing the signs of abuse, I have always read Pam's relationship with Roy as being abusive on some level. That being said, while your depiction of abuse was not true to my experiences, I always have this wonderful feeling of catharsis when Pam gets out of abusive situations, especially on her own with help of a support system. I doubly love Jim getting TOLD by Angela for not being there for his supposed best friend and not noticing what was going on. The sheer lack of understanding and self awareness he shows in season three is mind boggling but also a little understandable. I guess what I mean to say by all this is Good Job. You made my day off a little brighter.

Summary: Past Featured Story

Pam shows Jim the power a good woman can have when all the chips are down. 

AU: Approximately seven months post-Diwali, if Jim's little drunk-biking incident had been witnessed by a police officer.

TRIGGER WARNINGS: Suicidal ideation, references to past sexual abuse.

I always love abuse recovery stories. It's cathartic and wonderful to see trauma become less and less of a burden for Jim as his life continues. Thank you for telling this story, it lifted me up.
