Moonlight Becomes You - Especially While Reading

June, the month of Summer, brings with it the Green Corn Moon to give you plenty of light by which to read these selections served up by the HubNugget Wannabes of the Week.

Someone once said, "The Moon is very useful and we like it." If you join HubPages - and enjoy the possibility of becoming a HubNugget Winner as well, you also can provide us with such weighty proverbs to make our lives more meaningful.

Moonlight often represents the restorative and creative forces gathering to form something powerful - like the Hubs prepared by this week's HubNugget Wannabes!

So, it's time again to enjoy a list of Wannabe Hubs and seelct one from the list as your own favorite. The list contains a very wide distribution of different topics and writing styles, so we think you will be pleased.

We guarantee that all of these Wannabes meet the guidelines established at HubNuggets How-To, Q & A. This weekly contest is for our new Hubbers that have made high-quality content Hubs with a substantial amount of content within an attractive layout.

Wannabes worked hard, but you don't have to, in order to vote!

All you need to do is enjoy reading the HubNugget Wannabes and then vote for your favorite at the end of this page. The 5 Hubbers claiming the highest percentages of your votes by newsletter time at the end of the week will win the title of HubNugget.

The 5 winning Hubs are spotlighted in the HubPages Weekly Newsletter circulated to more than 40,000 people. That's a lot of traffic to view our winners, so please support our Wannabes and the HubPages Community by reading, enjoying, and voting.

We appreciate your participation and love you for it!

The HubNuggets Team

The Hub Nuggets Team, reading the photos from Left to Right → and Up to Down ↓ include:

Shirley Anderson - Our Fearless Team Leader, organizing the Team as they pan for Nuggets in the moonlight after normal working hours. Sometimes even at high noon and during the rain.

ProCW is a prolific graphic stylist that can make the sun into the moon and the moon into a searchlight that reveals the weekly HubNuggets Wannabes. ProCW designs graphics, writes Wannabe hubs, and helps choose Wannabes as well as to spread the word about Hub Pages and HubNuggets.

B.T. Evilpants is probably best under the full moon, when he comes out of his bunker test kitchens with a fresh pot of his latest miracle gravy for Gravy World Amusement Park and Jackalope Rescue Society. Aside from contributing to the HubNuggets Team, he has presented his own Blog to promote the HubNuggets Events, including personal interviews with winners. Read his news at: HubNuggets Reviews and Blog.

Patty Inglish, MS - Reads much at night by the light of Luna. With hobbies of astronomy and Native American lore, she thinks the Green Corn Moon is right on time. Plus, it brightens up Gravy World at night and keeps people from being lost on the gravy flume rides. Too bad that Luna Park is gone (sigh), but B.T.'s Gravy World is tops!

Ripplemaker cruises among Wannabes in her HubMobile, reading, commenting and voting for her favorites, while cheering others to join her in the fun. Always postive, Ripplemaker is an energized cheerleader under the moon and stars, storms, joy, or whatever else is up in the sky. Yay! ♥

Ryan Hupfer is an important part of the HubPages staff. Hubbers know him as the Communicator of Awesomeness that creates good ideas for fun at Hubpages. He oversees the HubNuggets Team beneath the full moon as well as the noontime sun -- Reports are that he does not sleep.

Write and Promote

If you are a Wannabe this week, spread the word, promote your Hub in any way that you can, and ask for Votes -- Email friends and family, post a link on message boards and social networking sites, put it on Craigslist as a community interest, tell your book club, put a free announcement in the local weekly newspaper, write about it in your blog and ping your blog - and remember to Vote, yourself - for yourself if you'd like.

Let us know about cool new ways to promote your Wannabe Hub! Thanks, and have lots of fun...

Dear Readers:

Excellent Hubber Nanny J.O.A.T. has humbly withdrawn from competition and we wish her all the best with her great Hubs.

Please refrain from voting for the last Hub on The Poll Place list, while I see if we can remove it without erasing all the votes thus far.

Thanks for reading, and please continue to enjoy HubNuggets Wannabes each week.

Thanks for the nomination (again). My username is wordscribe41 though (it says writerscribe). I suppose that works just as well, but if it's all the same to you I'll stick with wordscribe. :)

Patty, this hub is completely awesome!! I think though, that you blew our cover by revealing that photo of us in our undercover wear. We'll have to change disguises. Whaddya think about a Pink Panther theme?

I'm so glad that you remembered BT's blog and so ashamed that I forgot to include it in last week's hub! *Sorry, BT!*
