Bio:

 Hi, some useless information about me. Truck driver that spends way, way too much time reading to the detriment of my sleep. I never watched the show when it first aired and started on U-Tube about a year ago. Got sucked in to the JAM thing and started reading the Fan Fics. I must say that you writers are just fantastic. I have no plans on writing but just wanted to sign up to give reviews.

Also, totally agree with Creed, Without Scuba what is the point.  Thanks for reading this. Dave

This story is one of the reasons I joined the group. So well done, so engaging. At this point it will probably never get finished but if it is not to be, just thank you.

Author's Response: Thanks, late2theparty!  So glad you enjoyed it.

Summary: Past Featured Story

On a road trip, Jim's memories keep him company.

 Memories take place throughout Jim and Pam's relationship, from friends to husband and wife (pre- to post-series), but they are framed by events that occur during the Texas period (post-series). 

Important note: The author has chosen not to make use of all available warnings. However, one warning does apply to this story, but has been omitted to avoid spoiling readers for a major plot point and story theme. This warning applies for Chapter 10. This note/reminder will be repeated at the beginning of that chapter.

Wow. What an emotional ride that was, I read the story 3 times to get the full effect that you put forth into the story. The heartbreak that you do not see until the recipe is so true to the story. Thank you so much.

Summary: Past Featured Story

NOW COMPLETE! Jim gets in an accident on June 10, and Pam gets to help. Only AU in that it deviates from main timeline between S2 and S3 (no different worldbuilding premise).

Just finished reading this for the second time. So well done. It just amazes me the creativity that you throw into the AU for this storyline.

Summary: AU. Pam moves from Scranton to Philly because she scored a new job at a new rising company called Athlead! While out one night celebrating in Philly Pam decides to let lose and enjoy herself only to realize the next day that was with her new boss, President and CEO Jim Halpert.

I was so happy to see an update then read YOUR story. First, you take the time you need to come back to writing. We, your fans and friends will be here. 2nd. Congratulations on your wedding starting a new chapter in your life. 3rd So sorry to hear about your Mom. Mine passed almost 30 years ago one week after my son was born. We knew it was coming but she was able to see her grandchild before the cancer took her. I went through the same reactions, the same sense of loss. I am so glad things are getting better for you. Enough with that stuff. Get to work girl.😁

“What’s the last thing you remember before you passed out?”

Jim looked back at Pam. It looked like fear was starting to creep back into her eyes. No, not again. Not ever again. “A beautiful woman told me she loved me for the first time.” Just, just classic. Another great story. Thank you

Author's Response:

Thanks.  It's been a lot  of fun to write this story. I'm very glad you're enjoying it so much. 

 

The actress by Kuri333 Rated: M [Reviews - 48] 50
Summary: Past Featured Story

The documentary crew is about to start filming but they need an actress undercover, to make things a little interesting. Pam wants the long term job, only it'll prove much harder than she thought, especially in terms of not getting involved with the subjects.

So,so glad you came back to this story. An AU that has been done before with different degrees of sucess. Your take has been wonderfully done. Please try not to let it get thrown to the side.

Author's Response:

Thanks so much!

I've only read one take similar to this, and it' credited in the first note. I hope I can make it justice. 

Summary: Past Featured Story

Pam relives a single day over and over again--what can she do to break the loop? We all know, but when will she figure it out?

 Inspired by Groundhog Day (of course) and the two fics based on that movie on this archive already, House Call by time4moxie and especially Second Chances: The Booze Cruise by GreenFish (though that one is Jim POV).

Very nice setup. I enjoyed the before work scene that can be woven into the Groundhog day theme so well. Looking forward to the next chapters You are such a talented writer.

Author's Response: Thank you so much! I look forward to hearing what you think of the chapters as I build the various AU days Pam lives through.

The arc that you have chosen for this story is working so nicely. The way that you have intermixed the canon from the show into your work is amazing. It is nice that you show the friendship that Pam and Karen could have had is refreshing, I for one am not a Karen hater. Looking forward to the next chapters.

Author's Response: Thank you so much! I like Karen-Pam friendships, so I enjoyed the chance to toss it into S2 here. Thanks for reading!

Just amazing the amount of research that you have put into this story. Please do not apologize for any time miscues that may arise.
As has been said before the incorporation of The English Office and our heros is amazing. Wondering if we are going to see if Dawn is going to be Davids secretary or show up in the RAF administration? Wondering minds and all.
So many nuggets of story line you have made. As always thank you for this wonderful story.

Author's Response: Thank you. It's been a lot of fun delving into history to help shape this story. That's an interesting idea with Dawn. I'm not as familiar with the UK Office plotlines, but I'll do some investigating. See what we come up with. Thanks for the review.

How Not To by agian18 Rated: M [Reviews - 112] 99
Summary:

Meeting in an unusual place in life, a broken Jim and Pam try their best to put the pieces of their lives back together while not falling apart and back down the hole that they're trying to help one another out of.

Based on the song "How Not To" by Dan + Shay, because do I *ever* write something that *isn't* based on a song?

Loving this AU. We have all the characters in play (including Mose) with very appropriate jobs for each. I enjoy these stories that have Pam being a touch shy but knowing and verbalizing what she wants. Roy being a short time thing that she just sweeps under the rug but Jim is still jealous could make for some interesting byplay later.
As has been said eagerly waiting next update. Thank you.

Author's Response: Thank you SO much! It’s been a joy to write so I’m thrilled people are liking it. :)
