Like a writer's block, has any of you suffered from a question block?
I hope I'm using the right term? It's when one doesn't know what questions to ask at the present moment.
Taking part in the question and answers section of HubPages isn't a requirement. It's optional. If you don't have a question or cannot think of a question, then obviously you don't take part in that aspect of HubPages. No one should feel pressured into ask questions, which is why it's optional.
Umm... You're supposed to ask questions when you want to know something. If you have 'question block,' that means you know everything you want to know. So just wait till you get curious about something, and THEN ask a question. Otherwise, aren't you wasting your own and everyone else's time?
When I feel that way, not being able to ask a question, I just move forward to another mode of writing. Either I create a new hub or comment on someone else's hubs. Eventually a good question comes to my mind but not necessarily on the same day.
I never had question block. I don't ask questions (at least, not on HubPages) and I generally accept most things in life. But I can say, I love finding the answers to questions as you can tell by why I'm writing now.
Well sometimes you don't have anything that's currently pressing you, mentally. Nothing that's causing your brain to spin. Cognitive dissonance churns questions out like an assembly line. So whenever I get question block (very rare), I just look around me, in a book, under a rock, over a bridge, whatever, for something that I don't understand or causes me to become conflicted about my principles or beliefs, and questions appear! Woohoo!

Are you suffering from what is called the 'Writer's block'?For months I have been unable to write something on hubpages. I have had brilliant ideas but I end up procrastinating and telling myself that those ideas are best left to be written later for the book I intend to write someday. In the...

Well, summer is fast approaching here in sunny Florida, so I've been busy clearing as much area as possible to grow an organic garden. Florida betony, by the way, has an ubiquitous root system! Today I'm feeling a little fatigued, and if any of you have casually checked my Facebook posts, you'll...

I've been beyond stressed over the last week or so and the result is writer's block. Now that things are quieting down I still cannot seem to write anything. What do you do to get the ink flowing?
