Are you a Hubbophile or a Hubbomaniac?
(Hubbophile: lover of hubbing Hubbomania: obsessive hubbing) It's been my four weeks in hubpages and what started as a healthy interest in sharing has become compulsive visiting to the pages and interaction with the community. Would long term hubbers reassure me that I don't need therapy ;-)
I found Hubpages from a Facebook ad a few weeks ago. Had no idea it existed but I like writing and creating stuff on the net so it was a natural extension of my personal websites including seven YouTube channels. I think I'm your basic web addict and have been since I taught myself html and bought my first domain name years ago and started writing web pages. My main obsession is making videos.
I'm reclusive by nature, live alone and am retired so it keeps me amused with a way of keeping my distance from people while communicating at the same time. I enjoy the writing and creative process and I've always got lots to say. Some would say I'm obsessive but I don't think so.

I didn't. I stepped away for about nine months for stupid reasons, which caused me to lose a lot of productivity time.I look at people who have been here for short periods of time who have written more hubs than me and it makes me more motivated than ever to be as great at this thing as I can...
