		<title>Demand Studios Tutorials: How to Stop &#8216;Passive Writing&#8217; Part 3</title>
		<description><![CDATA[So which one did you pick?  If you picked D, you&#8217;re correct.
Why: The first sentence is filled with two obvious passive phrases&#8211;&#8221;should&#8221; and &#8220;can be&#8221;.  Although the second sentence starts out as an actionable sentence, it goes off track quickly by stating the obvious (it&#8217;s obvious the Control Panel screen pops up when you click on the Control Panel&#8211;you don&#8217;t need to say it).

		<title>Demand Studios Tutorials: How to Stop &#8216;Passive Writing&#8217;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[You may have seen Demand Studios toss around the phrase &#8220;passive writing&#8221; a lot.  It&#8217;s not something they made up either&#8211;it&#8217;s a real (and common) problem new writers make in an attempt to lengthen or fluff up their article.
Unfortunately, passive writing is hard on the eyes, especially for the Internet readers you want to attract.  It also makes it more difficult to understand the article&#8217;s purpose because of the needless extra verbs&#8211;a sign of amateur writing.
