Summary: Believe it or not, this is a sequel to "The Second Art Show."  Essentially this is my best take at imagining them as a couple, with particular focus on Pam's art career.  Eventually willl have a little bit of everything:  Smut, sunshine, some angst, references to sex with Willie Nelson.

Date: April 08, 2007 Title: Chapter 10: Ain't the Beer Cold?

I love that you've spent time on Jim's ambitions.  You're right - we tend to gloss over things that might be important to him when we write - or at least I know I'm guilty.

He already is an excellent manager - and that you have him realizing there is no shame in it is perfect.  Really lovely job showing how they are both so appreciative of one another - even if Pam was a little bit bossy at the baseball game. ;)

And baseball.  Sigh.  As someone who froze her ass off and had to drink hot chocolate instead of lemonade yesterday I have to agree the stadium is a happy place.  Esp. when you are rewarded for sitting in the cold by a walk off grand slam in the bottom of the ninth. ;)



Author's Response:

As a Red Sox fan I fear I wasn't quite as happy about that particular grand slam, but kudos for your endurance.  I think it's trickier to write about Jim growing than Pam growing, for one thing because there is no obvious avenue for it, like art for Pam.  I think it's a common issue in life, though, for lots of people to sort of officially join the establishment they've always looked down on without feeling like a sell out. I could defiitely see Jim as having to sort through that.

It's fun writing about them as a happy couple given how miserable they are on the show right now.  Brighter days ahead, I hope.  Thanks for the review!

I really love the idea (though I've come to loathe the word) of Pam evolving enough to be able to help another young woman in a similar situation or mindset someday.  Very cool idea.  

And the bit at the end?  Oh Jim.  Swoon. :)



Author's Response: Thanks xoxoxo...the saving Heather bit was in my head from the beginning and motivated me to write my way to the conclusion.  I adore Pam so much, I love writing about her doing well. 

Summary: Past Featured Story

She looked over the boxes with wide eyes, overwhelmed by all the choices. Words like clear and easy were jumping out at her and she had no idea what to do because this was the furthest thing from clear or easy that she had ever done.

So good.  You've really captured both of them so perfectly here.  Her panic, Jim just being Jim - regardless of the situation.  I cannot express how amazing I think this is.

Sweet (and hot) and just really...real. 

I sound like a babbling idiot - blame it on it being Friday - but I just wanted to tell you how much I adored this.



Author's Response:

You can babble all you want.  "Really...real" works for me. :)

Thanks for taking the time to read and review.

Everything about this was so true to life.  My mom wore green to my grandmother's funeral for similar reasons that you gave for Pam here.   And if anyone could pull off first person Jim it's you.  The details of her losing her mother manifesting into his fear of losing her - just amazing.  And you have this perfect way of showing just how much he loves her.

Thanks so much for sharing it.

Or maybe I should ask Him myself.  He just seems so busy....

Date: April 30, 2007 Title: Chapter 9: Shalls and Shall Nots

I so love this.  I love God as the objective voice through all this - telling us how it really is.  This chapter and Christmas were my favorites thus far.

I’ve found, though, that the life (and love) that’s worth anything at all is full of the lessons that you gain by sinning and by being forgiven.

Me too. :)

 



Author's Response: Thanks so much for your kind words. I'm glad you are enjoying this.

Date: May 03, 2007 Title: Chapter 10: Interlude -- Roy

Oh Roy.  This is awesome - because Roy isn't quite the jerk they orginally made him out to be.  And I am sure there's an Atlantic City in Roy's past.  No question. 

Really enjoying this.



Author's Response: THanks so much for your review. I think there's an "Atlantic City" in a lot of the characters past. Heck...maybe they all went together.

Ouchies - girl7.  I can't take much more of them not communicating.  It's just unbearably painful.  Here's hoping by the end of the season it will only exist in fanfic.

Lovely take on recent events and the past.  But please - for my sake - give me some hope in the end OK?

(or you know...write it how you want and forget about me. LOL! I'm just a whiner lately.) 



Author's Response:

I know - what the hell is wrong with me?  Like we all need to see more angst between these two!  But I'd been dying to write something angsty (and it was keeping me from "Only," which is nothing but fluff and steam at this point).  So I thought I'd do this one and get it out of my system.  Hee.  

And I'll give you more than hope in the end. *waggling eyebrows*  As I mentioned to another reviewer: I have The Fight all planned out, and...well, let's just say that they'll be fighting dirty.  (I cannot believe I just wrote that.  Eh well.) :)

Thanks for reviewing!

As I read your review, I was picturing Paris, Dwight's short-lived Staples co-worker - ha!  I love it when Pinot Grigio talks, though, don't you?  :o)
