No, wait, on second thought I have seen 1 rainbow-draped waterfall, and its name is MWL. If I could have only one website on a desert-island…

Some might think that you will probably garner attention for your novel simply because you co-created this site, and I agree. Some will think this unfair, and I don’t agree. You did the hard work of creating and sharing. And your hard work *has* made you more prepared and knowledgeable. You’ve earned it.

It’s still a hell-ish, uphill climb though, if my experience is anything to go by.

Best of luck! I look forward to reading about your success.

Some of this path, this finding a publisher/agent path, is beautiful, with rainbow-draped waterfalls sparkling in the distance. Some of it is hell; think suddenly-appearing chasms lined with sharp stones. (On second thought, don’t think that. It’s too depressing).
All of it is uphill. Welcome fellow sojourner and good luck. And thanks for the website!
