    I have just discovered that my article "Autism and Difficulties with Eye Contact" has been highlighted as a feature article in the Health section.
    I feel very humbled and honoured.
    Thankyou HubPages, this newbie is hugely appreciative.

    Aren't they automatically selected? I can't imagine HubPages looking for featured articles for every category and all the subcategories (we have quite a few of them: http://hubpages.com/topics/ ). I think the ones on the main page are hand-picked though.
