Sndcastle Spotlight on Hive account@myach

---

Last week, we interviewed Hive account@bitrocker2020 about his Hive account@myach project. Here's an excerpt from our interview with him, below:

Hive account@myach is an initiative to empower new and struggling Steemians from Malaysia to find identity and direction within Steemit. As a new Steemian the hardest challenge is to get their posts recognized by others. With Hive account@myach, we will be organizing a series of workshops mostly offline to ignite the passion of sharing / blogging.

These workshops would be conducted on weekends where every week it would be themed to different category of specialization such as photography, writing, vlogging and so on. For these in-person workshops, we invite other Steemians / experienced individuals in those fields to share their experiences.

Hive account@myach’s mission :

The Malaysian Steem Accelerator Hub mission is to accelerate the growth of Steemians in Malaysia to nurture great quality content from the community.
