Jan. 6, 2018
Hello, and again, Happy New Year one and all. I pray that you are all happy and healthy for every day of 2018 and from then on.
I have Two Serious Questions Concerning the Maven Take-over:
These Eight New Editors who will go to work on Jan. 6, "they" will have Two Questions to ask Me:
One, "how did you get into HubPages?"
and
Two, "why are you here?"
Lord, I dread it, but I am here. What else can I say?
Later and Peace one and all.
Love You!
What questions are you asking your followers, Ken?
I would imagine that Ken is asking The Questions Voiced above. "How did you get into Hub?" and "Why are you here?". How will we answer them. I am still thinking about how I will answer those Questions.
I think they're going to be too busy editing articles to actually ask anyone that.
Indeed, the new editors aren't going to be interviewing us. I was just querying the title of the thread, I thought Ken wanted answers or advice about something.
theraggededge . . .no worries. I was going with the tongue-in-cheek avenue and trying to inject a moment of levity for what seemed to be a serious moment with Maven taking over HP. I was in no way saying anything negative about you or anyone. In fact, the joke was on me.
faith-hope-love -- these were jokes that I was playing the roles of New Editors who were asking these questions about ME. Only a joke.
Kenneth I did not think that you were serious. I did though think that the Questions posed are one's that we may ask ourselves. It cerainly was a good one. God Bless., John
@faith-hope-love -- "thank you so much for the support. Whew! I was seriously worried for you know me well, I am not about hurting anyone---you, Marisa, others in HubPages or those about to join HP. Whew! That's too much work to type that much. LOL. And a Belated Happy New Year to you and yours.
@theraggededge -- look in my post and there you will see "questions that these editors will ask ME," and those questions are just jokes. Sorry for the confusion. Forgive me.
I got here because someone sent me a link to a HubPages article of forum about five years ago and it hooked me.
As a "lover of wisdom" I long ago found OBJECTIVELY considering all subjects and responding with them is the best way to grow in comprehending life so I am here to add to my wisdom and inspire anyone else who seek it to "think outside of the box" rather than traditionally is why I remain.
Honestly, my friend Kenneth, I don't remember how I got here. I just remember that I was so scared to even try to write with all those "experienced professionals" on HubPages, so my very first piece was probably the worst I've ever published here. Certainly no new writer accolade for me!
Curious, I tried to google Maven, but the only Maven writer website it came up with was a thesis writing website in the UK. Surely that's not our new connect. I'm not sure I can find the HP email that informed us of the Maven merger. Can someone post a link, please?
Hi. The link is themaven .net (without the space in the URL).
@MizBejabbers -- no problem, my friend. Honestly, I was glad to hear from you again. How is 2018 going for you tonight? I am proud to have responded to you and I am NOT a machine, but a huMAN.
Peace and have a good night.
And the same to You, AliciaC
Thank you very much, Kenneth. I hope you have a great 2018.
@AliciaC --- you are very welcome. I hope and pray that my hubs, and I do not mean to sound self-promoting, will start generating some cash for me for I want to buy more CHRISTmas gifts this year of course that is after outside charities are taken care of. I pray the same thing to you.

The new Feed Facility (that I quite like) means I become aware of loads of really silly questions that new 'hubbers' are asking. Unfortunately I find myself replying with equally silly answers (I know its childish!). There is a facilty to flag questions and I guess that it what I should...
