Bio:

Okay, first of all I'm a guy-are there any others writing here?  Yes, I am of course in love with Jenna Fischer and with the fictional character she has created.  And I would totally have a beer and watch some hoops with Jim Halpert.

I've never written romantic stuff in my life; this show just brings it out of me.  My stories here are sort of little daydreams that seem somehow therapeutic to me.  You can usually count on happy endings from my stuff; plenty of heartache on the actual show.      

Other stuff:  37, divorced, two kids, I live in Northern Virginia

Feel free to contact me.

They don't write 'em like this anymore.  This is fantastic.

Very interesting approach. While I agree Jim would want to bail on Athlead once he decides he truly can't get Pam on board, I hope he won't revert to making big decisions without involving her. I have a feeling she has had enough of that. Thanks for writing!

Excellent work. Very real. There is really nothing quite like the feeling of wanting things to be okay but not being able to get there. This piecethe captured that feeling. These two are having to live their lives and relate to each other with this huge unresolved tension. I appreciated this peek into how it might go

I haven't reviewed a story here in forever, but I wanted to say how much I appreciate this fic. You do an excellent job writing dialogue, and you have a good take on the characters. Good pacing and rhythm to your writing as well. I don't know where writing fits in your life, but you have some talent at it and I thank you for sharing it here.

Author's Response:

Thanks so much for reviewing! Especially considering that you don't do it often. It means a lot!

Writing is something that just happens whenever I get some free time, but I love to do it so... there it is. Thanks a lot! 

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.

This is a cool idea that gives you some freedom with Pam' s personality. Looking forward to reading more!

Author's Response: Thanks very much! I hope to make her still sound like Pam.  :)

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?

This fic will not be for everyone, but I dig it. I actually think the downtrodden Pam of S1 and S2 is only a few wrong turns away from your version here. Jim is a bit more of a stretch but you've written him well enough I can go along for the ride.

Author's Response: It definitely won’t be for everyone, but hopefully I can do the topic justice! Thanks for tagging along :)
