Passive voice I

Published by foxsable at 7:29 pm under Writing Edit This

I have such a problem with passive voice.  More than that, i have a problem with the word “seem”.  I need someone to tattoo Seem on my butt so that I remember how much I need to not use it.  In 5 pages I used seem like 30 times, a search revealed.  Is it all this Politically correct bullshit that makes me so passive or is it some kind of inborn need to please others?  I meander around points, I waffle on issues, I break up tense moments with indecision.  It is like I want to fail.  My group all noticed it instantly, why can I not?  I really need to work on this, like priority number one.  Well, beyond actually writing and finishing.
