What's your writing experience?
Whether it's causal, profession or anything in between, what is your experience with writing? When/How did you start, what have you done, and where are you now?
mmmmmm...is this a trick question?! I just started hubs..obviously
, but have been writing casually for many, many years. I write songs, poems and this last year I finished my first novel. Hubpages is the first time I have ever written online, so far I am loving it!
I wrote my first short story in the 5th grade, and have pretty much been writing ever since. I thrived in all sorts of writing classes throughout school including poety, and creative writing. I still aspire to be a professional writer someday, keep hacking away at it, but have yet to publish.
I've written plenty for school, but HubPages is the first time I have written for an audience. I just felt like I'd built up such a great deal of information that I think others can benefit from.
I'm still working on developing a writing style that people can relate to. But for now I am at least making sure the content and flow work well, and the subject is interesting.

How long have you been on HubPages; do you like it just for the writing experience, or for cash?I have been on HubPages actively for about three months, but mainly it's for the writing experience and to see how people like how I put my Hubs together, and my topics. I guess I am just...
