Bio:
I'm turning 30 this year, a single gal in L.A. I really enjoy reading well written fan fiction like that found here on MTT. Jim and Pam are wonderful characters to play with because they have so many flaws, but are still enjoyable and nice people.

"Sometimes he stands just a little too close and stares directly into my eyes just a little longer than is necessary and asks me a question such as, "where's Jon?" or "you seen my dad?""
DUDE - great description of sexy face.

"I'm sorry, I'm just really shocked. This is what my face looks like when I'm in shock."
I did laugh out loud at this. I can see his face perfectly!

Author's Response:

I'm so glad you saw what I was seeing... In my head. I'm really flattered that I made you laugh out loud and thank you for letting me know that I did. I have a huge ego that needs to be fed. Constantly. 

I'm lying.

Thank you for liking it!

All I've got is Thelma & Louise, which is not really right on several levels...at any rate this was very hot and I can't wait for it to get hotter!

I love the little glimpses we get they perhaps Jim has had a "thing" for Bees Knees, if I'm not mistaken. Would be very curious to know what he's been thinking during these chaps.

Author's Response:

lol That was all I could come up with as well and Jim is definitely NOT a girl. There will be at least one "Jim POV" chapter. I'm glad you liked the hottness... I hope I can bring the hotter...ness.

Thank you!

Jim's going to pass out - I'm calling it! ;) Loved his confirmations this chap that he's liked her for a long time and nice to hear that Jon knows.

"You can cook?"
Not even a little bit.
"I dabble."
Nope. Not true.
Heeee. Hee. Hee.

This is a very enchanting story - great job!

Summary: Just a little JAM one-shot containing spoilers up through "Job Fair" and a bit of spec. Jim and Pam were pretty darn giddy at the end of that episode, I thought it'd be fun to see where all that giddiness might lead them.

AWESOME.  Great story - thanks for writing and sharing it with us!

Author's Response: Thank you for reading and taking the time to comment :) I\'m glad you enjoyed this.

Summary:

It's a little AU, with Jim still working at Dunder-Mifflin, but attacking his job issues and his journey with Pam from a different direction. What if Jim worked in the warehouse with Roy when he starts to find the office receptionist way too attractive for his own good?

Date: May 26, 2008 Title: Chapter 1: One: You keep chanting that, hoping it becomes true

This is an intriguing story idea and well written. I guess I'm just concerned that at this rate you would have to write so many chapters to get through a storyline (as this chap was just one day). At any rate, well done and I look forward to more!

Date: June 09, 2008 Title: Chapter 4: Four: You think it might be easier if you really were gay

Ooh, great chapter. I love how pissed at Roy Jim gets. I also enojy that since in this AU he's not sitting across from her it would be a little "easier" to try and maintain distance and quelch the crush. You did a good job showing that.

Reviewer: Crystalized Signed 9
Date: June 09, 2008 Title: Chapter 5: Five: You think you can swim, or at least float, to shore

I really enjoyed Darryl talking to Jim. I always wondered in the series if Jim has someone (Mark? siblings?) to talk to about the Pam situation or at least someone who knew what was going on.

Are you going to stick with series timeline and events (i.e. a CN confession) or shake it up and go completely AU?

Reviewer: Crystalized Signed 9
Date: August 14, 2008 Title: Chapter 7: Seven: You probably should have kept your big mouth shut

Hey! Thought this one was gone for good. Although a bit to similar to CN (since this is AU) for my tastes, I did enjoy the ramped up kissage at the end! And very well written throughout!

I love how Pam's look at Jim is like his revelation. Great story with wonderful imagery. I do think something simple like this is how it would really happen.

Author's Response: Aw, thank you Crystalized. I'm so glad you liked it. :D

Summary: Three years have passed since 'Casino Night'. Jim didn't return to Scranton and Pam has left Dunder Mifflin behind. With more than just an ocean separating them, Jim and Pam struggle to find their way back to each other.

“I don’t have it with me, but I have a ring. For you.”

I love this line. Something about the phrase "for you" - you rarely hear that in a proposal, but it's true.
Lovely story!

Author's Response: Thanks! I\'m glad you liked it!

Oh, it's like time-travel fic! I love going back so far and seeing different POVs. And Roy broke up with Pam?! And btw, nothing wrong with cliche :)

Author's Response: I like that description. It feels like time traveling for me too because it's like going back to last summer when I first wrote this. And I'm glad you don't mind the cliche. I obviously don't mind it either. ;)

Ha! It's like time-lapse photography, I love it! Couch snuggles!

Author's Response: Yeah, it's a little different. It was meant to be like one of those montages that always come in the middle of a romance movie. I thought about writing everything out in more detail, but I liked it better this way. Thanks for the review!

Date: June 17, 2008 Title: Chapter 3: The Wake-Up Call

Can't believe it ended so fast but that was nice! Elizabethtown always makes me want to go to Louisville!!

Author's Response: I've never been to Louisville, but Elizabethtown totally made it onto my list of places to visit when I take an epic road trip around the country, and it's only because of that movie. I really don't know why I like the movie so much, but something in it just speaks to me, so I thought I'd try to bring a tiny bit of that feeling into this story. (In a really subtle way.) Anyway, I'm glad you liked it, Crystalized!

I can't believe all the postcard images you are making - they are awesome. Or are they real PS cards? Or both? Anyway, Jim's reply is PERFECT. More! more! I'm greedy.

Author's Response:

Haha, Okay, yeah, I guess I should clarify (oops, not everyone can read my brain) I made Pam's and Jim's postcards. So only the one about the wedding and the its not. The rest are real PS cards, from the website or book. 

I'm so glad Jim's reply worked. I really did spend a day on it (with my beta) figuring out the logistics of both Pam and Jim's cards!

And hey, this is the good kind of greedy. I will update soon!

That postcard stuck with me. It was in the book, and I saw it, and I was like, it just, I felt connected. And that was the only thing that was sticking with me as I was wriing it.

Thanks so much for all the reviews, it meant a lot. :D
