The guy in the corner booth finally looked up from his laptop

For about three months, I've been at the same table at The Daily Grind in Portland every Tuesday morning. The same guy was always in the corner booth, head down, typing like his life depended on it. Last week, he closed his laptop, looked right at me, and said, 'I just finished my novel.' He'd been writing the whole thing here. It was a small moment, but it felt big. Has anyone else seen a regular finally finish their big project?

What was the novel about?

Tell us more about the novel you're asking about, @adamk95. Your question is pretty vague without any context. I can't give a good answer if I don't know which book you mean.

Just name the book, man. We can't read your mind. If you forgot the title, describe the cover or a character.
