This is pretty fun! How do you fellow writers choose your hub topics?
Some people, especially if they are writing to make money, choose topics in a very methodical way by researching subjects people are searching for-- especially topics which do not already have lots of articles posted.
I write on things I find interesting, especially if they relate to my own experience. That is not to say that I always write in first person. From my journalism experience, I try to keep some objectivity and balance... except for the topics which are pure silliness.
Thanks for the feedback Rochelle! I really appreciate it. I think I will probably end up writing on a myriad of subjects. I love writing about the things I learn in every day life as well as my favorite hobbies and activities.
I have taken a break from writing Hubs recently, but will soon start back.
There are several methods I use to develop topics.
They include:
1. Responding to Other Hubs. For instance makes claims that Social Security and Medicare will be gone in a year, I will reply with my own research.
2. There are some topics I like to write about, my dogs, my younger ears and similar things.
3. The unexpected. This is when I sit in front of a blank screen and something will catch my eye and give me the start of a Hub. Once the first paragraph is written, the rest is relatively easy.
Thanks for the tips/advice! I appreciate it
Reason two should had been my younger years not ears. The ears are the same age as the rest of me, but they did work better when I was younger.
I write about topics that interest me, topics that I see online and want to learn more about, I don't have a niche at all, I just prefer to write what I know, or what I would like to know
Those are the types of things I like to write as well I"m liking Hubpages so far because I get to write about the things that interest me.

Do my fellow writers sometimes find yourself reading more than writing and vise versa?

Fellow writers - do you think of the plot first or do your characters arrive in your head first?I've done both but I am curious about the creative process in others.

I've been an active user of HP for over 6 years. Over that time, my income would increase until, suddenly, my "reads" would take a hit and my (modest) income would take a drop.This has happened a number of times, as you all know.And, I dutifully went through my articles and modified,...

What is your opinion of all the Hubs that are written as tributes to other Hubbers?I see a lot of Hubs written thanking followers and just tributes in general to them. I think that is a wonderful idea, but just wonder how they show up in Google search engines.
