Don't want to dwell on this, because I hear we're not supposed to do that, but the day after Thanksgiving, I got a present in my account!!
Thanks to all the hubbers here on HP who talked me out of quitting on at least a couple of occasions for all their moral support. I wouldn't have stayed without you cheering me on.
And to those who were not so very nice to me, becaue they considered my niche "fluff" and not "serious writing"..........gotcha!!
Congratulations, DIYweddingplanner! Make a copy and frame it to give yourself a boost when you need it.
Hey Quatrain, thanks! Are you trying to say I need to frame it, because it may not happen again?!
Thank you, Habee! Hopefully, there will be many more! And I have noticed you are one of those who supports other writers here, so wanted to say thanks to you as well.
Congrats DIY. I'm from S.C. (though living in Texas now). Why didn't you put a comment capsule on your Boykin hub? I'm on my second Boykin. They are such beautiful babies, and have such a marvelous temperment.
Hi RM, hard to find anyone from SC on HP, so glad to meet you!
As far as the Boykin hub, I had one, but I had someone put really cruel comments on there implying that I had somehow hastened my dog's death, so I took it down. It really hurt my family that people could be so mean. And you're right about the Boykins. I don't have one now, haven't gotten one since Molly passed away, but I would love to have another one some day.
Only North of you, my Georgia RD neck! Thanks, Randy, really!
Yore welcome! Now you can buy that first pair of shoes you've always wanted!
Really though, it won't take as long for the next check to arrive. Glad you stuck it out.
I wouldn't have stuck it out if it weren't for you and Earnest!
Good for you DIY, now write more 'fluff' and go get 'em.
Mpg, I'm gonna "fluff" my heart out... all the way to the bank!

I need to find out how to optimize and make the most out of my hubs. With Kontera, do I need to sign up as well?

I've been going through some of my old Hubs to update them but one thing I didn't think to check - until today - was which category they were in. What a shock! Several of my older Hubs were in totally inappropriate categories, which may be one reason why they weren't noticed for a...

I have a short story that I'd like critiqued and found "Critique Circle" in a google search which seems to have a nice format and a logical system set up. It has a Writer's Digest seal and I have great respect for that website.I have submitted my story for a contest even though I realize...

What is backlinking and how does it work? I've heard much chatter about it but still fail to understand... Thank you!
