    Do your friends or other family members also write on HubPages?

    Not counting friends you have met on HubPages, do any of your friends or other family members write on HubPages?  What influenced them to join us?  After watching me write and reading my Hubs, my youngest son has decide to write Hubs.  So far, he (hockey8mn) has already published 4 Hubs on his travels, experiences and interests.

      As surprised as I am that my son writes on HPs, I would be shocked if my wife started.

    Yes, my husband also writes on HubPages. After seeing my write and reading my hubs at that point, he (Howard S.) also joined.

    I had two co-workers who wrote for a short time on the hub pages. But both of them got disgusted for one reason or another, and haven't been active now for well over a year. However their profiles are still on the hub pages, even though they may never ever return.

    That is wonderful that your son has become a member of HP!!  Good for him.   I'll have to look him up and welcome him!
    No one from my circle of friends,,,,,,nor any of my family write on HP....at least, not to my knowledge.   I would think that if they did, I would hear about it.....
    On the other hand, I don't go around making the announcement that I write on HP.....so I don't know why I think someone else would...... Every once in a while I will send off a hub to someone......but I obviously haven't inspired anyone to jump on the HibPages wagon of wonders!!!

      My son has a tremendous number of "experiences" and "opinions".  Seeing me do this every night, he has decided to give it a try.  In 2 days, he has 4 hubs published, a few in the works, and a few more concepts.  He may look at the apprentice program.

    My roommates are both Hubbers. She started four years ago and he followed last summer. I got into the mix this April. It's great for us, because we have a little bit of friendly competition and it gives us a lot to talk about. A couple of my friends have also signed on to HP after suffering through all of my sharing of Hubs on Facebook. It's like one big, happy family!

    It's awesome that you can share the HP experience with your son!

    I have relentlessly tried to encourage my friends to write HubPages but they just open an account and they stall. I think they are not motivated.

    I am the only person that I know of in real life that writes on HubPages.

    I have one friend who  turned me to HubPages and I am so glad she did. Other than that only the great ones I have met here.

    I suggested a friend of mine try it; she's been a teacher and wants to transfer her college essays to hubs.  She says it's a matter of having enough time and I know she's busy but it's diving in feet first that gets us going!  I'll keep nagging her to get on with it!
