Welcome to SiliconEvent #1 – Get your ticket here.
Do you have a book lurking inside that you know you need to write, but don’t know where or how to start?
Books can be anything from a great part of the marketing strategy for your startup, to a personal journey that shares your wisdom and experiences through a memoir.
The first SiliconEvent* will be a book writing workshop by Silicon Beacher Catherine Moolenschot. Catherine did a 90second pitch at our June MSB Drinks. We were so impressed by her pitch and her work that we invited her to kick off the SiliconEvent series.
At this session Catherine will take you through her Unpacking Your Book process, where you will learn:
• Important exercises to do before you type the first word
• How to make your book UNIQUE so people will buy it
• How to create your Writing Roadmap so you know what to write when

Catherine Moolenschot wrote her first book “A Rough Road” at 13 and has been writing ever since. 3-4 years later, Her love for learning and personal development lead her to provide advanced training in speaking, facilitation, business, marketing, and communication alongside completing High School. At 17 she wrote her second book ‘Failure Is Underrated’, and gave her first TEDx talk ‘Living Your Funnel of Greatness’. She was then asked to speak in schools across Australia, so launched her business Inspire Greatness. She has spoken in Australia, England, and South Africa. At 20, she wrote her third book – a novel inspired by the teenagers she was working with in schools.
Today Catherine coaches individuals through the process of writing their own book; she helps from beginning to the end, starting with unpacking their book to being their chief editor.

* What are SiliconEvents?
It’s an innovative way to onboard new sponsors via events.
The idea is simple. The prospective sponsor pitches us an event idea that is of interest and of educational value to our community and to the general public. We organise the venue, promote and host the event. The revenue goes towards a sponsorship of MSB for the person or organisation conducting the event. SiliconEvents will be heavily promoted outside of the Meetup community via Eventbrite, Instagram, Facebook and Twitter.
If you think you have an event idea, pitch it to us through a meetup message to organisers or email hello@melbournesiliconbeach.org with the subject Event Idea.
