Bio:

Author of the month December 2018

I was around this site many years ago, during seasons 4 and 5, and then went on an unexpected hiatus for several years. I'm back and better than ever! Finished up one WIP ("Sociology 101") and might finish another if inspiration strikes. For now, working on new material and enjoying being back!

Alekja;rlskjdfalkerasdf.

I just re-read this, and I have to say: it's incredible.

You do such an amazing job with characterization. I have no problems at all picturing it in my head, because this entire thing is just so Jim and Pam that...gah. I don't even know what to say. Amazing.

Seriously. A-ma-zing.

Author's Response: Thank you so much, BigTuna, for such a generous review!

Summary: A JAM one-shot that forced itself on to the page. Unashamed of it's fluffiness.

I was ready to die at the beginning of this, because I thought--WHAT? PAM AND ROY? BABY? NO!--but then I just melted at the end when it was Jim and Pam ugh I can't wait until they're pregnant because I just imagine Jim as being the most awestruck, attentive, amazing father-to-be ever. I loved this, good job!

Ugh, Charles Miner. What a...well, nevermind.

I loved the dinosaur story. It was a really great way to get a peek into Jim's mind, to see how he must have felt that day. Your characterization was perfect, too. Really great, I loved it!

Author's Response: Thanks so much BigTuna, I\'m glad I got Jim right, that\'s great to hear. I may or may not have been a dinosaur nerd myself.

FINALLY, I've been sitting on MTT like all day hitting refresh, waiting on this to get up! I haven't even read it yet but I just wanted to be your first review!!

Squeeeeeee I'm so excited!!!

Author's Response: Awww, you\'re like my new best friend! I just had one little thing to fix before it got posted, hence the wait, but thank you for being my first review :)

Aleja;lskjdflaksjf.

Sorry. That's how I usually review.

I already said all of this, but so so so so so so so cute!! I loved it. But you knew that already. Gah. I don't know why you were so nervous, because this really is terrific. Seriously.

And I'm glad to have helped out. =)

Author's Response: And now thank you for the real review. Now that I have been bitten by the writing bug, I am contemplating adding to it in the future. On the other hand I really like it just on it\'s own so maybe I will just start something new altogether...who knows!

Summary:

What if Jim hadn't been able to get the card back during the Season 2 Christmas Party? What if someone reads that card? What if that person isn't Pam?

Some S2 angst and drama.

*sigh* This is a lot how I imagined the conversation they had when Jim got home. Supportive, but scared and nervous and second-guessing. But in the end, they still have each others backs, and you did a great job of conveying that. Very cute!

Author's Response: Thank you so much!!  I'm always happy to hear I come close to what other's may have imagined.  I'm so glad you liked it.

Like I said before, I love this. The changes you made were perfect, and I think you did such an awesome job of putting Roy in the good light that he deserves to be in. And hey, I'm really more than happy to beta anything you send me, so keep 'em coming!!!

Author's Response: Thank you :) Your suggestions were really helpful and you definitely made the ending awesome, you rock! We\'re never going to get done with school, are we? We\'re just going to constantly be writing stories and reviews, haha.

I've tried to read this story like ten times, but I can never get past the first chapter. I've never cried at a story before (except for The Outsiders and every Harry Potter novel in which somebody died, but whatever) but I cried at this. Hard. Beautiful, amazing, job. I can't promise that I'll leave more reviews, but know that I'll be reading--even if it takes me years to be able to get through it.

Reviewer: BigTuna Signed
Date: April 24, 2009 Title: Chapter 4: Chapter 4: Would you hold my hand If I saw you in heaven?

God this is so heartbreaking but so amazingly beautiful. It's really amazing to me that you're able to write like this, because I know that I certainly would not be able to do it. Great job, and I hope things get better for Jim soon!

Summary: I just love the idea of Jim and Pam and them having a family so I just write the situations as they come to me. Most likely they won't be in any chronological order, but just as I think of them. Plus, I don't think we'll get to see much of this, if any, on the show - which is okay, because it's about the whole office and not just them...but still, a look once in a while would be nice.

=) =) =) =) =) =) =) =) =)

So so so so so so so freaking cute. I love the title, too, "The Olivia and Boomer Show." I really love Liv, she's so cute and Halpert-y and I love love this little family you're creating. Please do more--I mean, you have my suggestions already so I won't repeat them, but I will say:

GET TO IT. My email inbox is cold and lonely!!

Author's Response: I definitely want to do more with Olivia and Boomer, I think she is going to be a very interesting little girl :) I am so glad you like it, hopefully people are enjoying reading it as much as I like writing about them.\r\n\r\nI want to have the next one I told you about finished by maybe tomorrow, more likely Friday. And yes, I have your suggestions and love those ideas too, so don\'t worry, you may be bombarded with many chapters at once!

Haha, thanks for the shout out. I'm blushing over here =)

Anyway, great job as usual. I really love Olivia--you do such a great job with her characterization, and the way that she and Jim and Pam interact with each other is so exactly how I'd picture them with a child--it's really fantastic. And this entire chapter is just...freaking cute. Adorable. I love it.

KEEP IT UP!

Author's Response: :):):) Thank you. There\'s a lot of pressure now, yeesh! Haha.

Like I say every time, I love the family you've created for Jim and Pam. And I love that we get this sneak peek into the future, instead of having to go baby at a time, you know? Really great job, I'm looking forward to the next snapshot!

Author's Response: Thanks, doll! I think the next one I\'ll keep them older again, just to practice, even though I love writing about babies because who doesn\'t love babies?! I think I\'m channeling Kelly Kapoor, haha, oops.

=) I love all three, but as always, you knew that already! And I love the transition you wrote--you know the one--it fits so perfectly. And I agree with Hannah, who needs homework? Not me! (I'll regret that later, I think...)

Author's Response: I\'m glad it worked, thanks for all your help :) Don\'t keep putting these ideas about not doing homework in my head, you know I\'m easily distracted!...And who am I kidding, we both know I jumped on the no-homework wagon a long time ago.

Again, wonderful job. I'm going to stop telling you how great these are in our emails so that I can say them all in this little box, where they deserve to go. This chapter was so much fun and I loveeee the development of Liv and Jack as teenagers. I love this little family...can we meet the new baby next?

Author's Response: She or he will be making an appearance VERY soon, and expect Livy, Jack, Gavin and Maddie to have A LOT to say about it, haha. Thanks as always for the review, dear :)

As I said before, this is really good! I almost hate that you get all of my comments through our emails, because I want to say everything all over again here in this little box, but I hate being redundant. So I'll summarize.

This is lovely. I really like getting into Jim's head, and you do it so well! And I love beta-ing for you, it's always such a pleasure to read what you write! AKA, keep them coming. Seriously. Right now. I have homework to put off! =)

Author's Response: Thank you dear, as always :) I too have homework I am putting off, thus my playing around on here instead of working on that. Silly real life has to be lame and get in the way of JAMmy goodness, ugh!

I love this. I love that it's first person and that you're taking it so far away from the awfulness that really happened between the two of them and making it something happier. I also love that you keep it so in character, and are so realistic with Pam needing time and Jim understanding, like we all know he would. I can't wait to read part three!

Author's Response: I LOVE THE FIRST PERSON TOO! I\'m not usually a fan of reading Office first person fics, but I\'ve now written two, so. Merci to you as well! (I\'m learning French, aha. Wish me luck.)
