Did you ever lose steam writing on hubpages but come back with the vengeance? How? Why?
Very frequently. My hub ideas come in spurts. Which, unfortunately, means there are dry spells. During those times, I try to keep active on the Q&A section, while reading and commenting on other hubs. It keeps my profile visible until I can get another shot of inspiration.
That's pretty much how I am with everything in life . No, I do tend to have times where I am focused more on other projects and during those times new hubs are few and far between, but I will take some time to go in and update old hubs. Sometimes in that process you find inspiration for a new one. Otherwise, I say don't stress about it. We do our best work when we feel inspired, not when we feel we "have to" get something done. Since it's HP and not for clients, I tend to just do hubs when I feel the urge.
It's tough when you think you have a good idea and write a hub about it only for it to be shunned. That can immediately cause you to lose steam and think about giving up, but nobody said writing was easy.
Even if I get far more misses than hits, it's not worth giving up because at the very least you're improving as a writer and eventually it'll pay off.
i am sort of all of a sudden lots of ideas coming in and then wanted in post them here but always had to take more time since I want to get them featured. So, the steam goes on and off all the time

I can only speak for myself but I think I've got a case of the Hubpages Spread! What's that you say? The Hubpages spread is the 10 lbs you put on after spending super long hours writing and posting hubs- plus editing old ones. I've developed the baaaaaad habit of scarfing down food while at my work...

I have been a member of Hubpages for 2 years now, but have just recently began using it to post my own work. While I understand that internet users search for information, and that these Hubs containing useful information draw in more money, I am also somewhat offended that I received an...

I used to be a hubber and I posted how to's and informational hubs, but I got burnt out because it wasn't my niche. I have written one short story now, do you think creative writing is a good way to go on hubpages?

If making money wasn't an option on HubPages, would you still write for this site...No matter if you make pennies a day or dollars. This question isn't about how much money a hubber makes. I'm just curious how many hubbers would still hub if they weren't earning money for the pub or to get some...
