SO glad you sent to me! Thanks my friend!!!!!

As I've edited my work over past year, one thing I've learned is that I have a natural tendency to write in passive voice -- it has been one of the most consistent changes I do when I edit: change to active voice.

It has been maybe? one or two articles that pointed it out - and you do a phenomenal job in this piece. But as you said: it's straightforward and clear.

What I wrote and what you caught is a perfect example of how we can mislead when we write in passive voice and then use incorrectly changing entire meaning! LOL

appreciate this!!!

I'm with Maria btw - I would sign up for your classes!! Plus you'd make us laugh with a story that I'm sure you'd use as an ice breaker! ;-)
