Been here a fair while now, and though I haven't had a lot of time to write and publish a heap of articles, I am proud of the work I have done so far.
I would love to gain more traffic, but given my chosen topic, I doubt that will happen organically for a while yet.
Has anyone else had any milestones of late that they would like to mention?
Congratulations, Paddysground. Like Bev, I haven't been motivated in the past several months to publish. I come up with ideas, jot them down and that's about as far as it gets. Fortunately, what I have posted still gets traffic so I see a payout every two or three months. Not bad for someone whose muse seems to be on an extended vacation! (Of course, working full time doesn't help, either. I can't walk away from the crap going on inside my brain, but my muse is free to take leave anytime she wants!)
Yes, not being able to go on cruises has definitely not done wonders for my mental state. Motivation has been lacking, as has the time available to write.
Excellent - you'll soon be there.
I'd like to actually have the motivation to publish... anything. I've written loads and it's just sitting on my hard drive.
I'm half and half. I have a few things that are just sitting waiting to be formated and have a final read of. The rest is needs starting or finishing.
What are you waiting for? Go on; get it out there!!

I am happy to report that both my traffic and earnings are going up again, not a lot as yet, but a definite increase! This shows me that it has been worth sticking around!

I was sorry to see that this forum thread was closed to comments by HP:http://hubpages.com/forum/topic/78912#topThere was a lot of good information going back and forth there. It may be that some snipe stuff went on between commenters, but the topic is still valid.I'd like to see it continue.

I realize it takes a while to start making money here. But it's hard to keep going when I only get a few cants for Adsense clicks. How long does it take to start making anything?

I haven't received any notification or see it on my accolades like in the past, but I just found out that I am celebrating 10 years here.It's hard to believe that it's been that long...time does fly by the older I become I guess!

I got my first amazon sale yesterday in over a year! I earned 79 cents! Yee haw! At least I know now they haven't shut down my account! It's wacky that I'm excited over a few cents but there you have it.

I just wanted to come here and give a little encouragement to those, like myself, who are new to Hubpages.I have been here a little over three weeks now and published 14 Hubs. I don't want to jinx myself, but for the past week I have been seeing consistent Adsense revenue, and according to Google...
