Android app doesn't load up on the emulator

My app has no errors in it however when i come to run it on the emulator then the emulator runs but doesn't show my app and comes up with this

error message -

[2013-03-15 09:47:57 - Writees] No Launcher activity found! [2013-03-15 09:47:57 - Writees] The launch will only sync the application package on the device!

This is my manifest -

           <intent-filter>
               <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

               <intent-filter>
                   <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
               </intent-filter>
           </intent-filter>
       </activity>
       <!-- dashboard Activity  -->
       <activity
           android:name="com.example.writees.DashboardActivity"
           android:label="dashboard" >
       </activity>

       <!-- main Activity -->
       <activity
           android:name="com.example.writees.MainActivity"
           android:label="main" >
       </activity>

       <!-- Register Activity -->
       <activity
           android:name="com.example.writees.RegisterActivity"
           android:label="Register New Account" >
       </activity>

       <!-- Book Activity -->
       <activity
           android:name="com.example.writees.BookActivity"
           android:label="book" >
       </activity>

You have to make any one activity that you want to launch first as Launcher activity.

<application
    android:allowBackup="true"
    android:icon="@drawable/ic_launcher"
    android:label="@string/app_name"
    android:theme="@style/AppTheme" >
    <activity
        android:name="com.example.helloworld.MainActivity"
        android:label="@string/app_name" >
        <intent-filter>
            <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />

            <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
        </intent-filter>
    </activity>
</application>

No Launcher activity found!

You did not set any activity as a Launcher in AndroidManifest.xml

<activity android:name=".ExampleActivity" android:label="@string/app_name">
    <intent-filter>
        <action android:name="android.intent.action.MAIN" />
        <category android:name="android.intent.category.LAUNCHER" />
    </intent-filter>
</activity>
