    This article grows out of a discussion I was having elsewhere about what happens when you write for Hubpages and your article is ‘non-featured’.

    In many cases you will write, post, the item would be published, […]

    • WOW! I’ve heard various complaints about HUBPages but this is my first time ever hearing this one. That’s a very sinister and devious trick. I find it hard to believe hopping HUBBERs would do that.

      I know what “flagging” is for but I rarely use the feature. In fact, I can’t think of when I’ve ever used the feature unless it was to flag a comment that looked like spam or was offensive. As for published content by fellow writers and bloggers? I would have to think long and hard before I click on a flag.

      I am extremely cautious about flagging a person’s content … that is to say their “hard work”. Especially flagging it so that I could steal it!

      Of course, it should be easy to track the tricksters and expose them. Don’t you think?

      At any rate, this is a matter HP management and staff should review thoroughly. Do you know if it has been reported to them? I should think they would want to examine and put a stop to it. It gives the entire site a bad reputation for allowing unethical behavior.

    • topic could found anywhere but it depend on your regular reading of various books or novels

    • I don’t have a formula for coming up with topics. There are free tools that help you generate ideas for blog posts. Currently, I’m going back over old content that was published elsewhere, deleting and republishing a lot of it here at Literacy Base. Not sure what inspired the writings at the time. Just know I didn’t earn any money as I had hoped so I might as well put the content here.

    • But there are free consultations and medicines given at the health center of the towns as well as in the cities. There are also government hospitals.

      Though of course, it being free, you will just have to allot a lot of your time in lining up to have them. Sometimes, people just have to have patience and determination to have them for free, because anyways it will benefit your budget after all.

      Though, for those illnesses that needs operations, you can always approach the DSWD , or those social organizations who offers them. Or you can always approach the leaders of your community for you to be referred to people who do some charity works or for some doctors who also offers their free services.

    • Nothing in this life is free. But every country should offer healthcare to its citizens. They should figure out a way. Because a nation of healthy citizens is better than a nation of sick people! If Cuba can do it, why can’t other countries? (huffingtonpost.com/salim-lamrani/cubas-health-care-system-_b_5649968.html) Healthcare in America is Big Business! Yeah! That’s right! I said that and I’m not taking it back!

    • Since I am mostly alone in the office room I occupy with my boss, I always have music to entertain me. That is because having music makes me feel like I have company.

      That is why too, I choose to listen to deejays who doesn’t only plays nice music but also gets to joke with his listeners.

      The music make my work lighter.

      When the boss is around, I put on an earphone on one ear while the other ear is open for her beck and call.
