Oh, Marsha - I cannot figure out how you are going to talk to Jim about this...
(great job with the story - obviously I've been sucked in! that last letter from Pam was the best - just the right mix of humor and seriousness)

Oooh I think this letter is my favorite one so far. It so perfectly captures how I think Pam really felt last season -- with Karen being so likable and why did it have to be her and the dreaming of weddings and getting married... Goodnight Jim. You're still my best friend. And I love you. Awww! So sweet! =)

Pam's letter is seriously making me tear up. This chapter is so much love.

What is wrong with me that I'm just NOW reading this? Good heavens, this is wonderful writing and storytelling and I'm loving this so far. The site went down in the middle of my reading of this chapter and I screamed "NO!" But here we are again and my pulse has returned to normal. So good!
Author's Response: Okay, I'm definitely going to respond to all of these eventually, but can I just say how much fun it's been to get new reviews for these early chapters. In fact, ever since I got your first review I've been rereading the story along with you. Is that dorky or what? But I hadn't actually read this early stuff in awhile, so it was really fun for me to go back to that. Anyway, thanks for all your kind comments. I'm always happy to provide some Saturday night entertainment! :)

Oh, this is great! Go Marsha! I'm excited for Jim to find her note, and trying to remind myself that these are all fictional characters! (It's very hard to remember that sometimes.)
I'm so glad Marsha is being proactive. A little more of that on the show, and we wouldn't be in this boat, right?
Author's Response: I hope you still like Marsha after this next chapter. She's not exactly turning out like you might expect...

OMG ~~ I cannot believe I waited until THIS chapter to start reading this! Yet another fic to be hooked on, begging for updates. Yikes.
I love how Pam writes like she speaks -- I could totally see a person who is going out of their mind trying to make sense of it all by writing it out in letter form. This is a great premise, and I am really looking forward to seeing where you go with this.
Author's Response:
Sorry! I really didn't mean to be that cliffhanger kind of author, but I just couldn't resist this one.
Your response to Pam's letters makes me laugh because, I kid you not, I do this. I have on several occassions written letters to guys I like when I didn't know what to say to them, or when I wanted to talk to them, but things were awkward between us.
It's pathetic, I know, but at least it's made for an interesting story, right?

i'm excited to see where this is going!
Author's Response: Thanks! I'm glad you like it.

Gah! Cliffhanger! I can't wait to see what happens...
Author's Response: I know! I can't wait to see too! Oh, wait. I already know. But I'm excited for you to find out!!

Eeee! I'm so glad that Marsha took the leap. And the italics help a lot!
Author's Response:
I'm so proud of my little Marsha right now. Look at her go. Off to save the world. Or at least save me some Jam. Basically the same thing anyways.
Thanks for the review!

Wow, what a letter from Pam! When Jim reads that he's going to go into shock! LOL Yay! Can't wait for more!
Author's Response:
"What makes you think Jim's going to read it?" the author responded cryptically...
Sorry, couldn't resist the chance to mess with your mind! Guess you'll have to wait and see.
Date: April 06, 2007 01:32 am Title: you're like my best friend
Yes! Go Marsha! Can't wait to see what's next!
Author's Response: Thanks! And we're currently taking sign-ups for the Marsha cheerleading squad. Call me if you're interested.
Date: April 06, 2007 12:05 am Title: you're like my best friend
The letters are great! So something Pam would do, and perfectly in character... they just sound like her so much.
Excited to see what happens when Jim calls Marsha!
Thanks!
Author's Response:
I'm so glad you think Pam would do this. I know I've written letters like this, but I thought maybe I was the only one. Thanks for reviewing!
Date: April 05, 2007 10:48 pm Title: you're like my best friend
Go, Marsha, go! Yay, Marsha!!
I like the italics. Looks good. :)
Author's Response: I think maybe we should start a cheerleading squad just for Marsha. Where's Katy when you need her?
Date: April 05, 2007 10:28 pm Title: you're like my best friend
I love this!
Author's Response: Thanks! :)
Date: April 05, 2007 08:58 pm Title: you're like my best friend
Eeeeeek!!! Marsha left Jim a letter! And this latest missive from Pam was a doozy! Whee!
Oh man! Can't wait to see what happens next!
Author's Response: I'm so glad you liked it! Enthusiasm like yours just makes me want to write faster! So thanks for the motivation.

Yeah, I definitely like the italics. I cannot wait for Jim to read the letters! (If that is, indeed, where you are taking this.) Pam's last letter was so sweet. Great job!
Author's Response:
Oh good the italics helped! And I'm glad you liked Pam's letter. I was worried it might be a little too sweet. Thanks for the review. :)

"It was the fact that once she did this there would be no turning back. She would now become a participant in this little melodrama instead of just a passive observer".
Don't we all wish we could go from being passive observers to participants! I am so glad that she feels compelled to do something about this madness. Can't wait to see what's next.
Author's Response:
I know I wish I could be Marsha, but since I can't I'll just have to keep writing about her. Glad you like it!
Date: April 05, 2007 06:10 pm Title: you're like my best friend
Yay, Marsha!!! I am SOOO anxious to see what Jim does/says!! Keep writing, please!! :-)
Author's Response: Thanks! And I'll definitely keep writing. Anything to keep the squirrel-master happy. ;)

wow so the office just ended and I am rewarded by new "letters" could this day get any better (well it could if my mom didn't bug me every MINTUE).
Wow, she left the note for Jim. I can't believe it.
I love that we got a full letter. Is it bad that really I forgot that you were writing it, and I was just totally like, Wow, Pam! and yeah, whatever!
Author's Response:
I hope it's not bad that you forgot it was me writing. Because that would mean it really sounded like Pam to you, which is a huge compliment. So thanks!
And sorry about your Mom, they can be a pain sometimes.
