Nuggets Of Wisdom

Hello! I have the new installment of Nugget Of Wisdom. If you don't already know, Nuggets Of Wisdom is my chance to interview one of the recent winners of the weekly HubNuggets poll. Sometimes it doesn't take much prompting to get them talking about their HubNugget experience, as was the case this week.

It seems that the HubNugget program inspires so much excitement in the participants, that my job just keeps getting easier each week. And that's what it's all about. Making things easy for m...I mean encouraging great new hubbers, and getting them excited to write even more!

DoodleLyn was eager to share her thoughts on her Nuggeting experience, and I'm happy to oblige! After you read her Nuggets Of Wisdom, head over to her winning hub and leave her a big ole congrats in the comment section!

I don't even remember how I stumbled upon HubPages, but I'm so glad I did. My hubby will attest to how much joy I get out of being in this community. He misses me! I'm always at the computer, either writing, checking for comments, or reading other's hubs. I've only been here a few weeks, but already feel so welcome. Most hubbers are very encouraging, and seem so willing to help out the "newbies."

What a surprise when I received my email to let me know my very first hub had been nominated to be a hub nugget. I quickly went to the link to learn more about what exactly that was. I feel honored to be chosen as one of the top five. Voting must have been very difficult, as all the hubs nominated were very well written. I guess in my excitement, I voted for myself (sorry other nominees, nothing personal), and didn't even remember doing so. I finally figured out how to direct my friends to vote for my hub the night before the deadline, and sent out a few emails. I also put a notice on my Facebook page. A few of them got their emails and did vote for my hub. A couple of people linked my hub on their Facebook and Twitter pages.

I got a few more fans from my hub nugget experience. When I first published my hub, I had some traffic and comments, but that died down a while after. I have received lots more traffic to my hub since my nomination. I hope to get more when it is announced in the newsletter.

I encourage all new hubbers to try it. I will definitely try again. Your hub can only be a hub nugget when you are a new hubber, so go for it while you can. I figure we can use all the help we can get promoting our hubs. Thanks to a terrific team at HubPages for your support, your encouragement, and for providing us a vehicle for our writing. I love it here at HubPages!





Wow DoodleLyn! It sounds like you had a lot of fun with it. I think I speak for the entire HubNugget team when I say GREAT JOB! Welcome to Hubpages, and keep those awesome hubs coming!
