    I know that I just enjoy writing and find it a sense of achievment when I get comments and feedback but what is it that does it for you, experience? Money? enjoyment? or something else?

      mainly money, but also it's a joy making a hub and presenting it to world wide web( though quite a small minority sees it smile) I feel happy whenever ı finish a new hub.

      Take my time :-) Mostly I learn, discover new things...money, hm...I don't think anybody really gets rich writing here, some claim the income pays their bills, hm...after writing how many hubs, I wonder...well, it's fun to see those cents piling up on my account - the proverb says: cent by cent builds a palace :-)

    All of that.  Money is the least important, but that's only because at this point in my life, I don't need much money.  I like writing, I like helping people, I like learning things from other folks hubs.  I enjoy the forums as long as I stay away from the religion and politics - I'm not smart enough to always stay away, unfortunately.

    Maddie is supposed to come mow the lawn and weed the front garden. Jason said something about washing my truck too, so, I'm looking forward to that.

    It gives me an opportunity to express myself as a writer...and to meet fellow writers.. I Enjoy making comments of some value in the FORUMS. I'm not involved in the money making end of "Hub Pages".  It sounds interesting....but I just want to write my stuff...Maybe get a book published.... then I  want MONEY!   LOTS AND LOTS OF MONEY!

    From the first time i write a hub until now my adsense is just got several dollars,,, but Something make me fun in hubpages is I can learn how to speak English correctly (although still have mistakes). And I also learn how to be a good writer, and many new experiences I've found in here.

    also when you are surrounded by the utter bore ( we all know them) it just trips off the tongue

    " i publish on the internet and am read, world wide.... why only yesterday I had my first read from......." (enter most obscure place you can thing of)

    knocks 'em dead every time

      Keep my sanity or insanity at bay. Add some meaning to my tiredness, add some laughter to my boring life. Tell me that I am not alone. Tell me that I am not the worst.  With what Greek One just said pretty much sums it up .  big_smile

    I do it mostly to promote websites, or in other words, money.  However, there are a couple subjects I've written on that I have really enjoyed writing.

    I have learned so much since I started here, gotten a lot of invaluable advice. I started for the experience, then when the money started coming in that became a part of it.
