Editing can be an overwhelming experience, so this month we are bringing you our tips for silencing your inner critic and dealing with self-doubt.
Have you ever wondered what other writers meant when they said, "That section is too passive."? In this episode, we talk about what that means and how to identify when you could be writing in the passive voice. We will give you warning flags and words as well as give you some ideas on how to make the section into more of an active voices as well as discussing when it's okay to use a passive voice.
In this episode, we mentioned the eight "Be" verbs: am, is, are, was, were, be, being, been. We also mentioned one of our favorite writing tools that helps us identify and change that pesky passive writing voice: ProWriting Aid.
