Picture of the Week: Passive Voice
Since I'm doing so much editing, I wanted to mention: to be verbs are not automaticaly passive voice. They often are, but they aren't automatically. (Specifically, descriptive phrases are almost never passive voice despite using to be verbs all the time.)
In a different note, I think I might take March off from social media. I feel like all it's doing is screwing with my mood. I'll still be online, because I have to use the internet to check my email and apply for jobs (which is another thing affecting my mood), but I'll be dropping off FB, LJ and NaNo for a while. (I'll probably return a few days early to get in a cabin for Camp NaNo, to be perfectly honest. April will be a return to the editing I've been slacking on.)
So, yeah. March will be time for me to catch up on reading, let my muse rest, and get more writing/editing done. I like this plan.
