Bio:
I've fallen hopelessly, terribly, all-encompassingly headfirst into the world of JAM fanfiction. I never thought I'd be as obsessed as I have been over the past few months (buying the Special Edition DVDs, reading fanfiction, thinking about fanfiction, contemplating writing fanfiction, racing home from work to read fanfiction, reading fanfiction at work, seriously considering paying $200 for signed Dunder-Mifflin merchandise, etc), but I'm thrilled about the prospect of it all.

I'd love to beta a story! Also, there should be an inconspicuous skin that makes it look like I'm doing work instead of on MTT... the Jim+Pam kissing banner is sweet, but won't hack it at work anymore.

He was quite sure that Angela thought he was an ungodly heathen, but then again, if his only other options were Dwight and Andy, he'd pick a heathen too.

ha. good point. good point.

Author's Response: I\'d pick Jim too, but he\'d probably be my first choice. ;)

What if Jim never went to Stamford? What if Pam started making life changes a little sooner?

i was so excited to see a xiu xiu reference in an office fic :) and what a beautifully crafted story, too. can't wait for more...dang that pam. always running away.

Author's Response: Xiu Xiu!  So good, but so unsettling.  I thought it was appropriate for Jim's frame of mind.  Glad you like it so far -- chapter 2 is almost done, so that'll be up soon.  Thanks so much for the review! :)

Date: December 20, 2007 Title: Chapter 1: Let's Break Up

Contrary to what everyone else is saying, I love the direction you're taking with this (very noticeably AU) story. From the rest of the comments and the author's notes, it seems like you took out a piece about arousal - Jim's arousal over killing Katy? arousal from the unveiling of Roy/Pam? arousal at being on a dark, spiraling path? I am very enamored of all the ways you could interpret this story, and while S4 Jim wouldn't be capable of such a feat (i.e. murder), his doppelganger S2 personality definitely would.

I can't wait to see where you take the story. If you need a beta, let me know!

Author's Response:

Oh wow!  Thanks!  The arousal piece - I went back and took it out.  I didn't really want to explore that aspect of this story after all, and working on the later stuff really brought that to light.  Basically, originally Jim found himself aroused after killing Katy, but he would deal with it later, when he was alone.  That's all that was stated.

Thank you so much for your encouraging words, and I may call on you for some beta work in the later chapters.  I really hope that you enjoy reading further!

Name me someone by sherlockelly Rated: MA [Reviews - 23] 16
Summary:

A long time ago, a told people to send me various Office pairings and I would write four or five sentence, super-short extra-filthy fanfictions about them.

A lot of people sent me pairings and a lot of MA short filth was produced. I decided to post them here because it gives me a reason to revisit (read: EDIT) them.

There will be 9 total, maybe 11 if I decide the crappy ones deserve to see light. ;)

Normally I don't comment on too many pregnancy fics (simply cuz I can't relate), but i loved the closing line of this one: He felt like an island beneath her, the current breaking all around them. Just beautiful :)

Author's Response: Well, this is a first for both of us then - I've had Pam incidentally pregnant in fics once or twice, but this is my first real pregnancy fic...hopefully, it will go in a slightly unique direction in upcoming chapters ;-) Anyway, glad that line struck you and thanks so much for reviewing, CashBasket!

They need to get wasted already...in the same room, that is.

(Beautiful story. Love it. Though I was a little confused by the "He hangs up. I want to die." transition - is this Jim? Karen? Pam?)

Ahhhhhhh. I had to reread that one a few times before I really understood it. And when I did, it stood up and slapped me across the face. Then punched me in the gut. Then kicked me while I was down. So sad. But so good, it hurts (literally).

Author's Response: Thanks, CashBasket - and sorry for any bruising ;)

All right -- your review?  Poetry, my dear.  Seriously.  What a gorgeous turn of phrase: "captured them into magical, tumbling, living beings."  Wow.

Thank you for not only taking the time to review, but for offering up such a lyrical response.  Again I say: Wow.  :o)

What happened!! I was lost in this crazy world of JAM sexage and then out fell a pair of lime green panties! But, like another reviewer said, bonus points for including not only a pair of green panties but also a ginormous cucumber in the story. Bravo!

More smut, pleeease!
