I love to read other hubs. I am not a writer but also like to hub about things i am passionate about or am curious about.
To be honest i am quite messy at times and forget where i put things and my laptop is no exception. So, by using hubs i have a great place for storing my little stories.
My hubs contain lots of gooooey photos but that is linked to my work and these are reality for me. Writing these hubs help me cope with the natural stress that is attached to working with very sick and sometimes dying patients. When you receive feedback it makes it all worth while.
The hubs that get most attention are the ones that are written from the heart.
This is also true for me, i will more than likely be attracted to hubbers that write about personal experiences rather than those that are obviously trying different topics just to make money.
I'm sorry to say but without depth in a hub it will never inspire me to follow that person.
It is so nice to say that i follow lots of you!
There are so many good articles to read on here :-) I've not been a member long so am still getting used to it all but I initially came across a few hubbers who's articles I enjoyed so am following them. I also like to hop to see what/who is out there.
What are gooooooey photos? I have to take a look now!!
That is good, at least you find consolation in writing here. Some people however write to earn money so their stuff are not geared towards personal hubs. In the internet world out there, people like to find information as well.
Oh please don't get me wrong I love reading those who write to earn, they are without a doubt leagues above me when it comes to flow and formulation. I am just an extra sucker when it is a true story..........I love zippy movies too.
Don't get me wrong as well, sorry about that. I just want to say that it is good that you found consolation in writing and that others who are more inclined to earn write informational hubs but not kind of personal stuff. I enjoy personal stuff as well, they lift me when needed.
I admire all people in the medical field. I will read your hubs. You seem like a nice person that isn't fanatical.
O.K. I went to your site. I couldn't make it past the first hubs pictures. Sorry I got a really weak stomache. I think I know what you mean by gooooey pictures now, yech!
Oh dear! So sorry about that but I did warn you.........lol ! Wicked woman. But really I want to spread the word about this treatment as it both saves lives and used far too seldom. So I appeal to all health workers and the many who have relatives with wounds, small or large, burns, infections ad diabetes foot. They don't have to suffer.
Well I write because I love to tell stories, create poetry, make people smile or laugh, and because it so therapeutic and cathartic. It helps me relax and chase frustrations away. And lately it is the only type of hobby I can afford to have, time wise.
What makes me follow a hubber? Well of course his writing. if it is funny, inspiring, smart, thought-provoking and so on. sometimes I have decided to follow someone also from answers I have read they have given to specific questions. Sharpmindedness and wit can be shown also through a short answer.
Hi Aisla-What a wonderful post! Even though money is an attractive part of this site, writing what's in your heart is my favorite aspect of this community.
You sound like quite an asset to HubPages, and if you don't mind me saying so, I'd say you're a writer, too!

Why do you write hubs? Money, fame, enjoy writing, personal cleansing?Writing hubs is a fantastic way for me to unwind after work, and at the same time have a third-party attributed value assigned to that writing, which lets me also fulfill some competitive aspect of my personality.Why do other...

I like to check Hubpages on breaks at work. Now, I can't access my Hub feed because a Hubber chose to write a Hub about drugs, and Hubpages hasn't caught onto it yet. My organization is pretty fair on what it blocks/allows. Usually blocks things about gun violence, cults, and drugs. They also only...

I WRITE, therefore, I use WORDS as my Tools.With the increased emphasis by HP and especially Google SE, on Videos, I feel that I am being driven to use/create Videos in order to increase the popularity of my writings. But, I,(a Writer in my own mind, at least) try to do my painting with...

I'm curious about that, and what other hubbers who do write hubs feel about it. I've seen some folks who don't write hubs, but who obviously read in HubPages and comment on hubs, and who participate in the forums with a good heart and a restrained hand. But I've also seen some others who seem to be...

Do you feel it's just plain rude for a hubber not to follow you back?

Do you usually write hubs for Search Engines or HubPage Followers?When you write a hub, do you write it for the entertainment of your Hubpage followers or to get traffic from search engines like Google? In other words, do you write hubs focusing on keywords, SEO, etc. or do you write really...
