Hello hubbers! I just celebrated my 1 year anniversary with hubpages. Last summer I did a writing blitz and I plan to do the same this summer. From now (July) until the end of August I plan to write a total of 30 hubs. My goal is to average 3 articles a week, 2 articles a week when we're on vacation and 6 articles this week (I've booked a babysitter for 8 hours this week). Anyone feel like joining this challenge with me? Feeling pumped guys!
Congrats on your one-year celebration! And best of luck on the goal and challenge of 30 hubs; it's a lot of work, as you know. I can't join in this time, but I will be here cheering you on!
I'm new here, just quit my full time job to follow my writing dreams and this is where I've been told to begin. I'm with you on this one, I have a checklist on the bulletin board in front of me and I've got 2 down already. GOOD LUCK!
alright, I'm not the only crazy out there trying to make this a full time gig, Go Justin!
I actually did this as a full-time gig from 2000 - 2013. It took years to build enough to actually pay bills with. Then all of the sites closed one by one. Now I am starting over yet again. I am trying to build from the ground up and hoping HubPages is a good place to start over.
Congrats for the one year anniversary. I am new here, been here for almost two weeks now but I will join you in your challenge. I am always up for a challenge.
All the best to you, Healthygurl!! I like your spirit and effort.
Keep on writing. All the best. Let your passion fly high.
I will certainly take that challenge! 30 hubs this summer here we go!
Hub #2 (from my other hub account)
http://okanagangurl.hubpages.com/hub/10 … Bike-Racks
Good luck with your writing. I did a similar thing last year too in July but this year am working on a Kindle book so not writing so many hubs.
I just joined HubPages today and I think that is an awesome challenge to get me back into the swing of things as well as launching my work here at HubPages. So yes, I will take the challenge.

Welcome to hubpages Linda! Looks like you're off to a great start.
Well, I am down one Hub. Something about Quality Content. But when I get home from work, I will try to improve it. Reading some of your Hubs has helped me see more on the design of Hubs and I thank you all for being an inspiration. I will get the hang of this.
I mean, I have been a freelance writer and editor since 2000 but each site has it's own niche. I just have to get the hang of HubPages' niche. hehe. I will say that I am a bit overwhelmed and happily surprised at all the feature to add. I think I am REALLY gonna like it here at HubPages. hehe...
Nice challenge, I'm in.

Are you in the midst of a Hub Challenge? Fantastic! Should you like to share the Hubs you have published as you continue along on your epic journey, share them here. Please do not post Hub links in other threads or start a new thread for individual Hubs. That makes things messy, and makes it harder...
