Bio:

Generally an annoying hopeless romantic.

I love writing, reviewing. In terms of reviewing - yes, I go back and read old stories. Sometimes really old. It is fun. Yes, I leave um, interesting reviews. Hopefully you like them. If not, tell me to shut up.

I am willing to beta. I can't promise a lot of grammar comments, but I can tell you what I like, don't like, and if something doesn't sound right to me. Feel free to contact me. I don't bite and fanfic is my life.

It's rather hot outside, so why not have a challenge with Jim and Pam trying to get relief from the heat.

Summary:

The show ended with hours of deleted scenes, and with them countless story opportunities! Write a story that expands on a deleted scene in some way. Keep it canon-compliant or use the deleted scene as a jump-off to a whole canon-divergent story. (If you don't have the DVDs, we have posted some of the more JAMmy deleted scenes to our Tumblr )

Summary:

suggested by Eers02

Jim asking Pam's dad (or mom and dad together) for Pam's hand in marriage. I think it was mentioned in a few of the post-WL stories, but I want to read about the event itself. You know Jim is the romantic type of guy who would do such a thing. Did he pop the question to her folks on the sly when Pam was around, or while she was away at Pratt? Via phone call or visit in person? How would they react after their daughter's first never-ending engagement?/Remember, Pam's folks supposedly live a few hours away from Scranton, so it would be extra effort for Jim to drive all the way to wherever-it-is to ask.

Summary: So I was watching Wimbledon and wondered what would happen if the Dunder Mifflin employees had to participate in a tennis tournament against other companies. Would Karen be paired with Pam? How is Dwight's serve against Jim's backhand?

This can be anything from Jim and Pam’s first date, to their first night together, their first birthday/holiday celebrated together, first time meeting each other’s family… 


Categories: Jim and Pam Characters: Jim, Jim/Pam, Pam
Summary:

I'd like to see a challenge based around the song 'You Don't Know Me'. The fic could have the song playing in the background, could have the characters singing it, could base the song off the fic or whatever....

Suggested by Strider.

I came across this description:
Her hazel eyes seemed to have experienced all possible tragedy and to have mounted pain and suffering like steps into a high calm and a superhuman understanding.
I challenge y'all to write a story about this woman (you may change her eye color).

Summary:

I may just be pepped up from seeing a live production of Rocky Horror picture show, but I think it would be fabulous to issue the challenge of The Office does Rocky Horror.  I have visions of Michael as Dr. Frank N. Furter, and Dwight in sexy black camisoles and fishnets that absolutely must be indulged.  How about it? ;)

The Phillies are in the World Series for the first time since Jim was a teenager (1993) - and they WON! How will he and Pam celebrate?

Summary:

I was reading a book, and I loved this quote:
ed I miei sogni usati, Ed I bei sogni miei, tosto si dileguar
Now all my past dreams, my beautiful dreams, have melted at once into thin air.

Hopefully someone can do it justice.

Jim comes back to Scranton, but without Karen.  Will our Jim & Pam still find their way to each other?  Who/what will be Jim's shield?  Or will everything be resolved much more quickly?

Summary:

Suggested by Puff.

I'd love to see a challenge involving Michael and Holly and the holidays. Maybe one sends the other a gift, or they talk on the phone, or one decides to surprise the other on Christmas. A bonus would be for Michael to make a bunch of lame Christmas jokes about Holly's name (like in GT- "If we hung Holly from the ceiling, we could kiss under her." Umm, I think you mean Mistletoe there, Michael).


Categories: Present, Other Characters: Holly, Michael
Summary:

Suggested by Grape Soda.

Anyone (specifcally Jim/Pam) finds themself under the mistletoe during S2 Christmas. Remember, Jim was still with Katy, Pam with Roy, Ryan and Kelly weren't together, and Jan and Michael were still all weird.

I am yet to find a fic detailing the Christmas party that Ryan alluded to when Jim spoke to David Wallace about the website. I think it would be great to see the party; Ryan would be there, Jim and Pam are a couple and Karen also attending as the Utica Branch Manager - and I love fics with David Wallace :)

Summary:

Suggested by BeckySue.

A winter storm hits Scranton and its surrounding areas. What do the people from the office do when they can't make it in to work? Who makes the effort to actually go in and who just waits for the ice to melt? Most importantly, what are Jim and Pam up to when Jack Frost comes knocking on the door?(It's up to the author who they want to follow on the snow day.)

Summary:

Suggested by JennInTheCity.

In "Chair Model," Jim lists several of Pam's quirks (messy, klutzy and spills everything, keeps the TV too loud) as reasons why she might not be a good roommate. How did Jim come across these quirks? And what other Pam quirks has he discovered?

Summary:

Suggested by Sally_Halpert.

Jim's doing up the house he bought for him and Pam. Kind of a basic challenge idea I know, but just the thought of DIY Jim makes me tingle.


Categories: Present, Jim and Pam Characters: Jim, Jim/Pam, Pam
Summary: When Jim asks Pam when she knew that she liked him, she says it was when he told her that the yogurt she was about to eat had expired. He asks if they can make a new one. She says no. What if they could make a new one? What would it be?

I can't be the only one curious about the incident just off Exit 17 at the infamous Fairview rest stop.

This isn't totally Jim/Pam-centric, but how about how some of the things in S1 or S2 might have happened differently if Andy were around?  I'm thinking "Booze Cruise"/"The Secret", but also Christmas & Valentine's Day. Either with or without the relationship with Angela.  Whatever works for you.
