Really disappointed this didn't end with Jim's dick on a map... j/k :p


Author's Response: Sadly, I pretty much finished it before I saw last night's episode. Otherwise, no question that would have been the ending. Maybe I'll do an epilogue. Stay tuned.

Patience Is A Virtue For A Reason by cadenza7 Rated: K+ [Reviews - 5] 3
Summary:

Spoilers for the finale. What I envision happened after Jim left the room and the cameras stopped rolling...sort of.

"She whipped around, threw her chair in their path, slammed the door shut behind her, and tore through the office. She ignored the questioning stares of her coworkers and her last sensible thought (Did you really just throw a chair at the camera crew?)"

This is completely freaking amazing.


Author's Response: Jimpong, you're awesome.  Is it weird that I looked at your profile and noticed you're a dude?  I fully support your foray into fanfic, because a) c'mon, it's great, even if you can't tell any real-life acquaintances about it, and b) you can provide a much-needed male point of view around here.  I was sweating writing Jim's POV in this -- so glad you like it.

Reviewer: Jimpong Signed 10
Date: February 19, 2008 Title: Chapter 7: Spinning on that dizzy edge, I kissed her face and kissed her head

Great story.  Really enjoy your portrayal of Jim here, not a lot of girls (I presume) really kind of get his emotions or probable emotions.  Really well done.

Reviewer: Jimpong Signed 10
Date: January 17, 2008 Title: Chapter 1: I won't rest while you break my will

Hey some responses to your response:

 

I think your Jim is good, especially for the time period in which this story is set.  The real problem I have with a lot of writer's portrayal of that character is that they tend to emasculate him heavily - he turns into this boy who does anything for Pam and frankly that annoys the hell out of me.

 

As far as guys and fanfic, I don't think I'm personally that far from an average guy and I like it a lot.  Obviously I'm a "romantic" so to speak but so are a lot of guys.  Eventually most guys get tired of the "bang as many chicks as you can" scene and go for more of the "bang one chick as much as you can" thing.  Heh..  Part of the problem is that "fluff" is in essence a chick creation and personally I can't read it or enjoy it at all for the most part, so it would probably drive away a lot of guys who really enjoy a good plot driven story. 



Author's Response: Hey Jimpong, thanks a lot for the comments.

Yeah, I think we're on the same page.  I'm around guys all the time (software developer!), have brothers, male friends, etc.  If there's one thing I've decided, it's that men and women aren't actually all that different in a lot of the ways that matter.  I know people of both genders on either end of the romantic spectrum, and in my opinion, the average guy and the average girl have more in common than many people think.

I agree; the emasculated Jim characterization drives me nuts.  It shortchanges the character, the story, and negates the entire reason I like the show to begin with.  Yes, Jim is awfully wrapped up in Pam, but he still has his own personality outside of her.  And he would do quite a bit for her, but that doesn't mean he doesn't have his own desires, or wouldn't be hurt to get nothing in return, or it could go on indefinitely.  I also hate the "Jim rescues Pam" phenomenon -- sure, he can help her in a lot of ways, but when all is said and done she has to rescue herself.  That's kind of the theme of 'Shift.'  Writing Jim's reaction to this is tricky, and I've been putting a lot of thought and effort into trying to do it right.

Lastly: Ha!  I'm a fan of your relationship outlook.  That's pretty much my philosophy.  Except, you know, with a guy.  Anyway.  Thanks again for the feedback.  I really appreciate it!

I'm sure I'll make more friends with this but

Do you ever get tired of writing the same story over and over again?

Most of your stories (and many of them 20k+ words) are virtually identical other than which episode its supposed to start after, and maybe "how many fictional brothers does Jim have".  I could probably mix and match 5 different chapters from 5 different stories (here's the "jim and pam kiss but don't get together" chapter, here's the "jim has a heart to heart with FictionalHalpertBrother00", here's the "pam dumps roy/jim dumps karen" chapter, here's the smut) and make something completely legible.  You're a better writer than this.  Take a chance on a different kind of premise.



Author's Response:

I'm assuming your first question is rhetorical; in any case -- no, apparently not. 

And wait a second...my stories are formulaic?  They contain a lot of the same basic plot elements? *wide, blinking eyes*  Wow, thank you so much for enlightening me, because I really just had no idea.

Seriously, while I'm open to constructive criticism (and you've obviously got some valid points), I'm not so much a fan of being condescended to. 

Obviously, I'm well aware that a lot of my stuff is formulaic; I'm not claiming otherwise.  I do this as a hobby, as a way of blowing off steam; occasionally I'll write something completely different, if the mood strikes me. 

And while I appreciate your deigning to tell me I'm a "better writer than this," I hope you'll understand when I tell you that I'll write what I want to write, thanks. 

My advice to you would be to read what you want to read; if you don't like my stuff, dont' read it.
