I was told SO MANY times I was told my writing was too passive and did not know what that meant 😅😅😅😬
Now it's like "not only do I get it, but it's a lot more helpful than ppl say"

A three-panel comic with Peter Parker (Spiderman in his civilian outfit) as the protagonist. The left hand side panel has Peter with a book open with the title "How to finish a paper". The right hand side panel has two images: on the top Peter reads in the book the phrase "Write It". In the bottom right panel, the third one, Peter sheds tears.
