What is the longest time you have had between publishing hubs?
I seem to be in a slump! Talk about writers block!
Now! It's been about 3-4 weeks since I last published. I've got so much going on at home that it's difficult to fit things in. I've loads of drafts but need to finalise them. Hopefully a few days away will give me some time but don't hold your breath!
Sorry to hear you have writer's block. How about a hub on what you think about when in a slump?! Or a hub on just what's around you? Good luck!
I went for over a year! I started writing, turned my attention to something else for awhile and now I'm back. It's easy to get into a slump, just do something little each day and before you know it, you'll have written 50 articles.
i have bipolar 2, and my creativity comes and goes like a yo-yo, or more accurately it swings from one extreme to the other like a pendulum. when it hits its high i write many hubs, cant keep up with the ideas. when it is at its lowest, i cant think of a single thing to write. this used to bother me, but now i just accept it because there is nothing i can do about it. even when i can think of something i simply have NO desire to write it, and my thinking isnt organized enough to put one together. if this isnt your case and you simply cant think of something, well, what are you best at or what are the things in life you love most, are the most passionate about? choose one of those things, do some exrtra research on it and you will soon find your mind teeming with new ideas. good luck.

Traffic slump. Should we wait before continuing to post hubs?If we are going through a periodic slump in traffic, would it be a good idea to lay off posting hubs until things pick up again?

Recently the last couple of weeks, I just cant seem to find something, anything to really write about. its not that theres nothing of interest. its just that I cant seem to frame anything about a topic. how do the rest of you deal with a Block.

What's the longest you've ever had to wait for one of your hubs to get indexed by google?Some of my hubs got indexed in a day or two, but I have three hubs right now that haven't been indexed and it's been 2-3 days since posting. I'm starting to get concerned, but the most scary part is that one of...

I keep starting hubs and then losing interest in finishing them. I think it's because I'm really not sure what to write. One thing I have found out though, is that if I know someone wants to read about it, I get inspired enough to work on that hub full force. (Too bad I don't get many requests and...

That's nothing for some Hubbers, a lot for others. But after being here for more than three years, watching my views go up, and then watching them go down, sitting at the bottom of Panda after February, and knowing that I don't write here with SEO in mind, this is something special. Something good...
