A CHRISTMAS STORY AU. Yes. Here for it - and the choice for Michael to be the one carrying the heavy weight of regret is perfect. As is his insistence, even as a manifestation, to be mildly inappropriate.
Author's Response:
I loved writing this. I had so much fun with it, and I remember really having to think about how to balance which characters played which part, and how much they needed to stay in-character. I think a lot of them were dragging around regret (I mean, they worked full-time at a paper company in Pennsylvania...) but Michael was my first choice for Marley.
I'm so pleased you've arrived at this one. 'Tis the season!

Dickens is probably boring a hole in the dirt as we speak, but he'd probably be laughing too.
Author's Response: I hope he wouldn't be offended! :)

Nice start! Jacob Marley always freaked me out, all floaty and clinking.
I love the ambiguity of the sigh in your last line.
Author's Response: After "our" recap, I realized how much alike Pam and Michael are in some ways, so I thought it seemed appropriate. Thanks!

OMG! I've been writing a type of Office "Christmas Carol" for a couple of months now! Ours are very different but it's awesome to know I wasn't the only one with this idea, lol! Love it! Kudos to you for being the first to post it!
Author's Response: Thank you! I look forward to reading yours!

Brilliance, sheer genius - the concept, the execution. First, Dickens's story so lends itself to this adaptation! And Michael as her guide!!! Perfect, perfect, perfect.
Author's Response: Oh, thank you! It was a ton of fun to write.

Paraphrasing a different work of Dickens, "Please ma'am, may I have some more?"
Author's Response: It's all up now. Enjoy! (I'm glad you liked the beginning!)

I love it, it was hilarious and I can't wait to see the three visitors (here I am hoping that Dwight will be one of them;))
Author's Response:
Wow, that was FAST! Thanks! :)
You'll have to wait and see. Picking the "ghosts" was the hardest part.
