Is it just me (I don't think so) or is hubpages addictive?
I joined a couple of days ago and quickly (poorly)wrote 2 hubs, I have 6 more in the edit stage and about 100 or more at the idea stage, I think I am addicted.
I am starting to suffer from hub overload as I have so many hubs to read and write, so many hubbers too follow, so much information to digest, interpret and use and so few hours to do it in.
Anyway I am sure I am not alone so better go work on my new hubs.
Great to be here and to meet so many interesting and supportive people.
it is my friend..i too m addicted to it...but now i have formed hours in which i would use hubpages...
Maybe I need to tame my addiction by planning my time on here but right now I feel as if i would be missing something.
Sure it will settle down and become a close friend that I enjoy sharing time with.
I'm pretty much addicted! But, I think as a whole I'm addicted to all online stuff. So much information out there to soak up!
At least this addiction is profitable, there are many out there that are not.
Usually when something is new, I go full force and I just joined hubpages. However, writing has accompanied me for decades and I never tire of it. I am enjoying hubbing and conversing with new writers. Writing is a way of life for me. However, I do know that when my relationship time with others is null then it's time to limit my writing and hubbing. I seek balance in all things, however, writing is one of my best friends.
Welcome to all you guys just discovering this great place for putting your writing out for the masses. Hub Pages is wonderful, that is obvious even after just a few hours. I have found it to be quite rewarding and am beginning to see a monetary benefit as well. You would be well advised to slow down on your writing and partake of some hubs by long time hubbers as they will save you lots of time in editing and revising if you understand the Hub Pages process upfront.
Anyway, wlecome aboard!

I joined alittle over a week ago, it's all I think about. Will this pass? If so, when?

I can't seem to find an answer for this in the learning center. I have a large set of articles I've been writing for a while + some time on my hands to dedicate to Hubpages for the next couple of months. Would publishing 10 hubs a day benefit or disadvantage me, both in terms of hub score /...

I used to be totally addicted to HP, couldn't wait to log on everyday to see what was happening, who and what was popping in the forums, what interesting hub made HOTD, and of course, how my stats and earnings were progressing. I looked forward to the rush I got from clicking "publish"...
