I'm Desrever Emannep. Just a pen name, of course. I don't have a cat, but my spouse has one, and she (the cat) hates me. In all my writing life, I have written three novels and one novella, but none of them has seen the light. Well, the latest one has just seen one in amazon, but I don't have enough belief in it. Well, if my spouse said that my writing sucks, would I think that the world think otherwise?
I know Brandon Sanderson says he wrote 12 novels before he got published. I consider my unpublished works practice novels, each one making me a better writer! As to "what is this place?", this is an attempt to replace the functionality of the old nanowrimo site, now that the old one is officially dead. I'm a web developer by day, and my background (working at both large companies and as the lead developer at a startup) means I was in a good place to set things up. Please let me know when you see any bugs, and I'll fix them as soon as I can!
