List of Evy's Redirected Articles

I used to publish articles on HubPages for awhile back in 2011-2012. At first it seemed great, but then quickly became apparent that it was just as bad as all the other "content farms" out there, making money off of people's time, energy, and writing through the ads placed on and around their articles, giving mere pennies to the money they made off them. Obviously, I ditched that site and have been moving my writing ever since.

The following list provides the title of the articles that have moved, the URL they were previously published at, and their current locations. Be sure to check this entry as this list will continue to update as articles are relocated.

One at a Time: New Pages at the Site!

As mentioned in the last post, I am moving articles from HubPages to the site. You can read about which ones have moved and where they are now at Where Did Evy's Hubs Go?. As I add more to the list, HubPages is setting up red flags against the hub for being overly promotional (as opposed to redirect information for those who have linked to the articles in the past). I added other links to try to balance it out, but apparently anti-HubPages sentiment is also a violation. I am sure it is simply a bot picking up on a site that may have pop-ups or the like that I'm not seeing. However, as they do not tell me which links are violations in the way they tell us which links are broken, I do not know which ones to remove. As a result, the hub is likely to be taken down soon. If that becomes the case, I'll be posting a copy of it here for those who have linked to the articles on HubPages and want to know where they went and those who would like to know where to find the new information added to the site.

If you have any questions or run into problems with any of the links, please let me know!

Blessings,
Evy

New Pages Coming Soon!

After a plagiarism incident involving the work of writers at HubPages and the lack of (useful) support we received from the company we were writing for (and who receives a percentage of our writing potential), I have decided to discontinue publishing with them and move all hubs (not specific to HubPages) elsewhere.

As many of the articles I have written for HubPages will do considerably better at the site, I intend to move them there rather than another content avenue on the net. Some will stand as independent pages and others will be added as sections to currently existing pages. Some may even be merged with some of the current pages. This process will take a little time (it takes awhile after unpublishing a hub for it to no longer show as a duplicate when published elsewhere), so please bear with me. You won't notice too much at the site itself, but if you ever check out my HubPages account, you may notice it slimming and be unable to find the articles temporarily. I am putting together one last hub to provide redirects during this transition to make it a little easier.

I hope this change will make your experience at the site more enjoyable!

Blessings,
Evy

Addition of Links to Other Articles

Over at HubPages this month, they are having a Know-It-All contest. As a result, I've been writing a lot of articles of interest to Wiccans and Pagans that would be appropriate to the site. Instead of posting the articles on the site directly (and having to deal with a headache about duplicate content, and rightfully so), I have included links to the specific articles throughout the site as appropriate. For example, the Advice for Wicca Beginners page now includes a link to my hub Wicca Beginner Tips. Some articles are added to sections called "Outside Links" on the different menu pages like the Information Beyond the Basics menu page. When you click on one of these links, it will open in a new tab (or window depending upon your browser and settings).

Hopefully this will help bring the information together instead of having to search different sites at once. Granted, only links to my articles are included in this way. (Links to the writings and websites of others are posted on the Links pages). If you have any questions or run into problems with any of the links, be sure to let me know!

Blessings,
Evy

Newsletter Announcement

The Ostara issue (#21) of the newsletter came a couple days ago. If you didn't get a chance to read it, you can find a copy at the Newsletter Archive. I hope you all enjoy!

The next issue will be out in June for Midsummer. We are currently looking for submissions! Our theme will be "Making Dreams Come True": So many of us are bombarded by information, standards, and modes of thinking by cultures that convince us that our dreams are unrealistic. Maybe we never listened to them and have been striving toward our dreams all along. Maybe we took awhile, but are now casting off our old selves. Maybe we are still stuck in moving toward our true life's purpose. What have you done to pursue your dreams? What holds you back? How do you overcome the negativity from those around you? How are you making your dreams come true?

Submissions for the Midsummer issue will be 01 June 2012. All submissions received after the deadline will be saved for future issues. For more details, see the Newsletter Information page at the site. If you have any questions or suggestions, feel free to post them here as comments or shoot me an email! :)

Blessings,
Evy

No More Weekly Discussions

Well, per forum member feedback, I began weekly discussions. After a couple months of this, only two people participated and only once each and only with the first two discussions. As a result, I will no longer be taking the time to designate special discussions as a highlight for the week. Instead, I will go back to encouraging a variety of discussions as I used to. For all those who wanted Weekly Discussions and are upset by this, I'm sorry. You should have participated.

On a less frustrating note, the next issue of the newsletter will be coming out within the next two weeks so be sure to be on the lookout! In the meantime, I still have not received any submissions for this issue (the deadline was the 1st of this month and then extended to the 8th). If you would like to submit anything to the newsletter, please be sure to do so ASAP! Thanks. :)

Blessings,
Evy

New WD Is Up!

The new weekly discussion for the week of 27 February through 04 March is up and ready. It's posted a little early this time as I may not have the chance to post it later this evening. This week we are discussing the structure of Wicca and the impact it has on the community. Whether you are Wiccan or of another path, please do not hesitate to jump right on in! Sometimes an outsider opinion says far more than an insider one. ;)

Blessings,
Evy
