I finished my Nano novel. I need to brag about my awesomeness right now. 4 days early and I actually life this story. Basically it tells the tale of a 20 something we all wish we could be (sexy, English degrees, getting her PhD, etc) who gets engaged to this Scottish guy. Within 10 pages he dies. So it's then about how 5 years later she can't get over him, changed her life around to be where he was before he died, and has all these issues (seriously dark and depressing).
