Bio:
**So, I removed "Twenty-Six." I hadn't updated it in months--seriously, long long months. I feel very guilty about it, but at the same time, I really need to focus on creating a collection of short stories for my thesis. I'm sorry. I appreciate all the reviews and encouraging words and helpful critiques. I had a lot of fun with the characters and that story. Hopefully, I'll be able to write some one-shots every once in a while.
For "Twenty-Six," there will be no more updates or reposting, but here's what happened: Pam cheated on Roy with Jim, got pregnant, broke up with Roy, and had a baby with Jim. Like there was any ever doubt ;)
Again, thank you all for all the kind words. I had a blast :) **

I'm still writing, though, and the fun writing resides mostly on my blog. No JAM stuff. Just musings on being a grad student, some literary review things, music crap... you know. :)

I was hoping there would be a good story up soon about Beach Games. And hooray :)
I'm really looking forward to how you work this out.

Author's Response:

I'm really glad to hear you say that!  Because I have such a twisted, fanfic centered mind, as soon as my repeated, "Oh my gods!" were over, I immediately wanted to write, but I was thinking, right - like anyone is going to be reading tonight....

So THANK YOU for the feedback and the enthusiasm!  I will work it out...somehow.  :o) 

Summary:

Something I came up with on the fly... my take on what everyone was thinking during Pam's speech in Beach Games.

Ooh the last one was sad. And fitting. But still sad!
I love Kelly's, Kevin's, and Dwight's. "I can't breathe" cracked me up. :)

You got more... maybe? Oh, come on. :) You have more and you really need to share it! Please!

I think this is a good depiction of what a first date between them could be. I'm glad you didn't shove Karen to the side and that you actually dealt with that, because come on, there is going to be something going down with that, right? I like the trouble Jim has on the way to Pam's house, and how they basically are meshing on the date. :)

Good job!

Summary:

Jim's first barbeque was a success and so he decides to have another. Someone breaks into the liquor cabinet and things... take interesting turns.

Jim/Pam smut with a pretty hefty (for me) plot, but LOTS OF DRINKING! Which is always fun.

FINISHED!!!

I was like, huh, visual aid, what could that be... and then I almost fell out of my chair. :)

Summary: Past Featured Story

A year or two before the cameras arrived, Michael takes the staff to the Poconos for a camaraderie event.  Much unresolved sexual tension and angst ensues (uh, between Jim & Pam, not the entire staff).

What a great chapter!! I needed to read something like this, the Harry Potter epilogue bummed me out so much ;) This was fantastic! I can't wait for the rest

Author's Response:

Aww, I'm glad it pulled you out of the HP funk.  (For the sake of other readers who might read review responses: am totally, totally unspoiled w/r/t HP.  My husband, on the other hand....hee.)

Seriously -- so glad to know that you enjoyed this!  I'll be updating very soon (like, tomorrow) --

Summary: Ryan and Jim are both at something of a crossroads after the events of The Job. They examine each other's lives, and gain some perspectives on their own lives at the same time.

Wow, what a great find. I'm so glad I came across this. I wish I didn't have to go to work so soon so that I could read it straight through.

You hit these characters dead-on. The little insights on Kelly were great. Ryan's thought process was brilliant too (the whole Eskimo part cracked me up).

I am definitely looking forward to reading the rest of this. This is on my mental to-do list for later this afternoon :)

Author's Response: Well, I\'m glad you came across it too. :) \r\n\r\nThanks so much for the review. Nothing makes me happier than to hear that the voices are in character, as I really try for it and always hope that it works! \r\n\r\n

Summary: Past Featured Story

Ugh. I loved this. So sad, but completely true. I think this is a really good example of what could have happened after that episode had Pam stayed, because of course she wouldn't have cheated on Roy at that point. This is great. I loved it :)

Author's Response: Thanks so much! :o)
