For a long time I have had an idea for a book. If I write it in hubs would anybody be interested in
I wrote my first book twelve months ago and didnt have the self belief that anyone would want to read about me, they do and it is now being published. It costs nothing to dream
I am currently getting a great readership for my new serial titled, "Revenge, Inc." right here at HubPages. I'll admit, fiction writing doesn't normally get much love here, but I'm doing my best to change that.
About your question, there really is only one way to find out! Give it a shot! By the way, I have a lot of hubs that are fictional pieces, so I certainly doing exactly what I preach.
i love fiction! I love reading it and writing it. Yes, by all means hub it!! I'm going to become a fan just so I can be notified when you do!!
Just a word of caution from one writer to another... If you think you might want to publish this story, you may not want to put it on the Internet. Most publishers will not accept stories that have been published in any form, including the web.
An alternative may be to save that story idea and use it for NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) next month. I am still trying to come up with an idea for it. The website for NaNoWriMo is nanowrimo.org. It's kind of cool since several writers are trying to write 50K words in November. The forums and encouragement are great.
You may want to try a different book idea for Hubs.
Just a thought...
(Good Luck on NaNoWriMo if you sign up! I should go sign up myself now.)
I think that it's a good idea. I am writing a Western and giving my motivation at each step so that the thinking behind is completely exposed. I have never written a Western before, but I have seen so many that it shouldn't be hard, and this one is going to be mix of adventure, thrills and humor...with the emphasis on humor.

Why does it take so long for hub to post itself after being published?I published my hub almost an hour ago. At the top of the page of "latest hubs", it claims that the page is updated every half hour. I've been refreshing the page for well over an hour and the page has not been updated...

I just did a Hub and looked and it was listed in Google within minutes of being published!I know this happens, but I have seen Hubs take hours, weeks and days to get listed.I did something different, and I will try to duplicate it. IF it works, I'll let everyone know the technique I used.I know it...

Where have all the hubbers gone? I don't see many hubs being published.I don't see many hubs from those hubbers I follow. Just wondering if they stopped writing on here? The new home page is difficult for me. Still trying to navigate and find my favorites. So I just wanted to say, I miss you guys....

Everyone wants to get their hubs noticed and read, and to get plenty of "thumbs ups" and appreciative comments, so it is worth exploring all the factors that help towards this end.Having just had a couple of hubs that virtually nobody has spotted (but I reckon that people would enjoy them...

For my last few hubs I noticed that I was getting no comments and wondered what was going on so I contacted one of my followers who then told me that she had not received any notification that I had published any new hubs. Has this been happening to other hubbers.

Once done with creating a hub, when we try to publish it, this is the message we are getting "This hub has been submitted for publication, and will be published once it has been reviewed by the administrator." Previously it was not so.
