If you remember only one thing about writing, then remember this.
Don’t cause reader fatigue.
“The Ball was hit very hard and elegantly by the boy.”
That passive sentence caused you to think a little.
“The Boy hits the ball.”
Your brain processes this sentence more easily than the first one.
It’s a tiny difference, but over the course of an entire document, passive writing adds up and causes reader fatigue. Your reader will feel tired and lose interest if you write too many passive sentences.
I know so many good writers who don’t take care of reader fatigue. Hence they are never able to attract readers.
