I just wrote a hub while using the john, took about 15 minutes from birth of idea to completion of article. Of course I then spent 45 minutes doing keyword research. Do any other hubbers have similar tales of spontaneous outbreaks of hub?
Not me - it is too easy to end up with a crappy hub that way
Seriously yes, my last hub poem fell onto paper from first thought to done in about thirty minutes, at least until I get round to the inevitable revision.
I have this evil habit of coming up with a perfect piece of writing (be it poem, hub or just general idea) when I'm somewhere without a pen or too lazy to get one. That's generally in the shower or right before I goto sleep!
I carry a pen around enough that if I have an idea in the shower I'll often grab at my hip dumbly for a minute before I realize I'm not wearing pants and thus have no pen.
At work I generally have a pocket on the front of my shirt with a pen and pad in it - I often get random looks from strangers when I'm out and about in civvies and appear to be groping my own boob!
I gotta say your pen story is better than mine.
So if I need your pad and pen in a hurry . . . . .
Poo poetry can be delightful. I've actually written a little poo poetry.
However, I confess, that my time on the throne is not spent writing hubs, answering phone calls (I WILL NEVER UNDERSTAND THAT ONE!!!), or checking emails. Reading, yes once in a while...
You make me laugh, peeps.

I've read a lot about the importance of doing keyword research, but then you also get the impression that to really do that research properly can take a long time unless you get lucky early on or really know what you are doing. So I wonder, with some people pumping out huge amounts of hubs, are...

HEY! I have an Idea! Why doesn't someone write a Hub on "How to Make Money on HubPages."?Honestly! How many people have to try and tell the rest of us how to make money using HubPages? If a new one pops up right now (like one did a few minutes ago), what are the odds that it will...

For this week's HubMob, I have decided to cover a topic that is truly close to many people's hearts - their pets. I have never really been a pet owner, but as I meet more and more people I realize the huge role that they play in the lives of others around me. So, this HubMob is basically a way for...

I have been on this platform for about two and a half years; however, unlike most of you here. I have not been doing my keyword research just right. Do you mind if we discuss how to do keyword research?
