Bio:

I thought I was just here to read, but I guess I ended up writing a little. My bad. :)

I'm switching to Yes on beta-reader, because I should have more time now that I've finished my own recent story and I'll probably take a break from writing. I don't know how many requests will come from that, so I reserve the right to change back to No if I get overwhelmed. :) But I am an unrepentant grammar Nazi, and have edited a LOT in the past, so I'm totally up for a little beta.

Summary: This is another alternate ending story from season three, beginning just before Phyllis' Wedding and ending at Business School.

Many thanks to Beeswax for her advice and encouragement.

I still own nothing, not The Office, not Jim and Pam, and nothing affiliated with TV or Scranton. I am, however, getting a new laptop for Christmas, which is why I'm purging this one of this story before the holiday. On that happy note, thanks for reading!

This was the perfect statement from Jim:

I believe she is inspired to begin painting from her heart. And from mine.

Just what Mrs. Beesly would want to know, without going into too much detail too soon.

I simply enjoyed the heck out of this story. Well done! 



Author's Response: I thought that was very Jim-like too, invis. ;) As you said, gave the information Mrs. Beesly (and the readers) would want to know without giving away too much. And it was succinct, which men so often are. ;) \r\n\r\nWow, your kind and encouraging words have truly meant so much to me through this process. Thank you so very much.

Oh, fabulous. Really, really great. I adore Pam being a real person--being a brave and stupid person. This line to herself in the mirror said it all:

“I want to fuck up completely.”

I think everyone can relate to that feeling--or at least those of us who are like Pam. :)

I sincerely enjoyed this story. Very well written. Thank you!

LOL @ Dwight's talking head! Running over Mose with the backhoe!

Michael's TH was awesome, too. You're excellent with the characters' voices.

And, of course: OMG I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE WHAT JIM'S LETTER SAID UPDATE RIGHT NOW OMGOMGOMGOMG! 

Reviewer: invis Signed
Date: December 16, 2007 Title: Chapter 3: No, because that would be kidnapping

Ha ha ha ha ha! Yeah, you know, I also think Toby might have a thing for Pam.

I must tell you, though, that you have killed me by not letting us see what was in the card. I'm dead now. I'm typing this from the afterlife. The connection time is reeeeeally slow here, too. 

Summary: Four times Jim and Pam could have gotten together and the one time that they did. This fic is based on the principle that if you miss an opportunity, there's a very good reason i.e. it would have been worse than the hand you're actually dealt. Basically, this is why the first four are angsty and the last one is fluff.

Okay, first of all: #3? YES. THANK YOU! That is exactly why it shouldn't have happened that way. 

I love all the scenarios, and the one where they did get together was perfect. Pam proposing to Jim is fabulous. Fabulous, I say!

Really excellent work with this. I loved it. 



Author's Response: Thank you so much! I thought about it for a long time and, you know? Pam without the "fancy new" tacked on the the front would just be a disaster.

I really enjoyed that. I never wanted to see Karen get hurt, either; I just wanted her not with Jim. She could've been such a great character, but she was grossly underutilized.

Well, anyway, excellent work on this. It made me really like Karen. And Toby, too. Poor Toby.

Oh, man. For future reference, always end with the cheesecake; I almost couldn't concentrate on the rest of the story due to thinking about all the mind-blowingly delicious varieties of cheesecake. Oh, God, the lemon raspberry cream cheesecake! I don't even know if I can sleep tonight. I'll be tossing and turning all night, thinking about that stuff!

But, um, I mean, awesome story. :)

Author's Response:

Yeah, yeah...I know.  I'm a total angst whore; I can't help myself!  It all happened so fast!  [/Pam]  :o)

I will say this: I'm committed to taking this story past the resolution, to spending a few chapters (knowing me, probably more, LOL) exploring the fluff and the steam and the wonder that is the two of them together...finally.  :o)

Oh, okay, I guess I can let you do whatever you want, since the story is fabulous so far. I trust you. (But I'm telling ya: ooh, scary noise!) 



Author's Response: Heh -- all in due time, my friend.  :o) (Love the scary noise idea!  Or sleepwalking, maybe....)  Thanks for reviewing!

Wow. You actually made me want her to stay with Roy for a minute there! I've never seen a Pam/Roy breakup written so believably before. Usually Roy is angry, but we never get to see him upset at the relationship ending, which is so much more authentic. 

Excellent job. Now I need to see more Pam & Jim together so I can be happy again! :) 



Author's Response:

Wow -- I really appreciate your comments!  I'm so glad you found Roy's reaction believable.  I've always written him as immediately angry when she breaks up with him, then sort of slowly winding down to being upset, so writing him like this felt...I don't know, unusual to me.  I worried that I was trying to get through the scene too fast or something -- so it's doubly nice to read your kind words about it.  :o)

And more happy Jim & Pam together is on its way -- promise!  :o)

Thanks for reviewing!

Getting pretty interesting! I hope you update soon. :)

Summary: There were two alternate endings filmed for The Job, and I remember reading GD mentioning what the alternate ending was somewhere. So, this is my take on it. Also, it's sort of a look into what Pam was thinking throughout that day when she didn't think Jim was going to come back.
