Go is an abstract strategy board game for two players in which the aim is to surround more territory than the opponent. It has very simple rules and is easy to learn but challenging to master! The game originated in ancient China more than 2500 years ago and is one of the oldest board games played today.

When you write grant requests, event invitations, annual reports, and even humble emails, you want to move your readers to action. But too often jargon, lack of practice, and outdated rules from school can get in your way.
Power up your writing in this 90 minute workshop. You’ll leave equipped to:
- Tell stories that stick
- Write sentences that sing
- Keep your focus on your reader
- Find your voice
- Scrap what you’ve learned about writing that isn’t working
