This. is. SO. CUTE!!!!! I just read the entire story in one sitting, so well done! Absolutely loved your premise as well as the content of their letters, both Pam and Jim writing things that they didn't have the courage to say face-to-face. Seriously, props to you!

Aww, this chapter brought tears to my eyes! It was just so amazing how they all got a happy ending, and how Jim and Pam kept in touch with the Janitor even tho only Jim had met her once! LOVE THE STORY!
Author's Response: Thanks for the review! I'm so glad you liked the story. I had a great time writing it, and it's always fun to hear that there are still people who are reading it.

I know just the feeling of finding things that I just *must* read when cleaning. That's why it always takes so long. I'm impressed that you stuck with this story for so long. And I'm really glad that I found it after you'd finished! :P

So I had this nice idea that I'd go to bed early and wake up tomorrow morning and get some homework done, but then I just started reading chapter 1 of this story...and here I sit, over 2 hours later, at the end. And I swear, I'm nearly crying. And I'm not often reduced to tears by things I read. This is all of course, crying in the "good" way. I was a little hesitant to read a story narrated largely by an OC, but I gave it a shot, and I'm glad I did. This story was truly unique and lovely. I love how Marsha had her own little backstory that really affected how she related to Jim and Pam. I love the way Jim kept delivering the letters after Marsha left. I LOVE the epilogue. I just...this was great. I love it, truly. I can't wait to make my kids write letters to their dream girl/guy! :P I'm actually serious about that, I think it is the neatest idea I've ever heard-I am an overly sentimental romantic, I guess. Maybe I'll start writing mine-20 isn't too late to start, is it? Or is it too creepy? :P Anyways, I just wanted to share my love for this story. Great, great, wonderful, awesome, lovely job!

I think I just melted. Seriously, such a fantastic story and I love the bit with Audrey at the end!!
Author's Response: Thanks so much! I'm really glad you enjoyed it. I had a lot of fun writing this one.

I have thoroughly enjoyed The Garbage Can Letters. I'm glad you got around to finishing the epilogue. Thanks for having Pam & Jim keep in touch! I especially enjoyed the tag team first letter to Marsha.
Author's Response: Thanks so much! I really enjoyed writing it. It was always my plan to do this epilogue, but for some reason actually writing it turned out to be much harder than it should've been. Anyway, I really appreciate your review!

Sniff. SO amazing. Thank you for writing this wonderful story and sharing it with us. I am very happy you posted this last chapter and we got to see what happened with your characters. Congrats on a great job!
Author's Response: Aw, thanks, Crystalized! I'm so glad you liked the epilogue. I've been planning it since the beginning of the story, so I'm glad you're okay with the ending. I was worried no one would care about my characters after so long. Thanks again for your review! You're the best! ;)

YAY! So happy to see that things started to work out for Marsha.
And double YAY for the Jam wedding. It's the stuff that fairy tales are made of. Actually, better than fairy tales, who needs a dragon or a witch or talking animals?
Author's Response: Thanks, Lisahoo! I'm really glad you liked the ending. However, you should know that I'm actually working on a new story right now that involves a dragon. Not kidding. I'll keep you posted. ;)

Aww these last few letters were so beautiful. I'm happy for Marsha and her kids and I love how Jim and Pam kept in touch with her and sent her copies of the letters. It really is a perfect epilogue -- all the characters are happy and we get to see little glimpses of their futures.
This was really one of the most romantic Jam stories ever. I am so glad I read this and thank you for sharing it! *happy sigh*
Author's Response: Thank you so much for all your reviews! You have no idea how much they made my day! And I'm really glad you liked the epilogue, and that it fit in okay with the rest of the story. It's been so long since I started writing this that I wasn't sure it would all fit together right, so I'm glad it worked for you!

So great to see an old favorite resurface. Thanks for a great ending, Azlin.
Author's Response: You're so welcome, NanReg! I'm glad it's an old favorite! That just makes me smile. :)

Wow. I just read all of this in one go - it was so beautiful! A really great idea and spot-on characterization. I loved Marsha and her family, and all the letters were really open and interesting and moved the story along at the exact right pace. It was so good!
Author's Response: Thanks so much, Ruby Caspar! (Cute name, btw.) I love it when newer fans aren't afraid to leap into the older, longer stories. And thanks for leaving a review! It means a lot to me.

Yay! That was awesome Azlin, it's so sad to see them all grown up *sob* but very nice to know how wonderful everyone's lives ended up. Amazing.
Author's Response: Thanks, dm! I know I was kind of going out on a limb here with all the future stuff (I'm not sure how much anyone really wanted to know about their lives that far in the future), so I'm glad you enjoyed it.
