Good day everyone! This is going to be 34th week of *Hive Learners Author Of The Week* campaign. ---

So What is The Author of The Week About?

--- > The Author of the Week is about selecting every week four great contents shared from our weekly prompt in the community for you to check out, engage and vote for your best contest through polls on Hive from leofinance threads. This way, we encourage authors to be active and be the best in their content creation. ![png_20230407_044137_0000.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/kronias/23xekB3CcVzwBcyNYDzMDpLnvaKm822V5tu5t6ogTNFNVQrFjJ9VsgyoaTeMp2EMjQBj3.png) ---

How Would The Initiative Run?

- 4 Posts would be selected from the weekly prompt questions - Every Thursday night, we would be sharing announcements for the selected authors - Polls would be drawn on Leo threads to choose your best Author - 60% reward of that weekly post would be distributed between Most Popular Author & Best Author of the Week --- ---

How Do You Vote?

--- - First make sure you have your hive account logged in to leofinance.io - The polls link would be shared in the announcement posts and also via our [Discord Channel](https://discord.gg/fb5vbK683f) ![hl_sunday_divider_1.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/kronias/23uEykc6xXRrHB77oM7dAoxjpirAkC7hv2RygbRsXd9JCKfdYisSoQgzeWXQD9eiGMtTz.png) [The rise of the water after the sail is extinguished](https://peakd.com/hive-153850/@castri-ja/fqahudwcpm) ---

For this week's Author of the week's nominations, we begin with this science experiment @castri-ja had with his cousin. This is an experiment that doesn't require any chemical component but can be done with basic things like candles, water, coloring etc and yet teaches us important lessons like the best way to extinguish fire (maybe in the kitchen) is by isolating the fire from oxygen. ![hl_sunday_divider_1.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/kronias/23uEykc6xXRrHB77oM7dAoxjpirAkC7hv2RygbRsXd9JCKfdYisSoQgzeWXQD9eiGMtTz.png) [Happiness is not so difficult to find](https://peakd.com/hive-153850/@intishar/happiness-is-not-so-difficult-to-find)

@intishar talks about happiness and how being satisfied with what we have leads to true happiness. He also goes further to list out some things that help someone be happy, things like good mental health and of course, money. ![hl_sunday_divider_1.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/kronias/23uEykc6xXRrHB77oM7dAoxjpirAkC7hv2RygbRsXd9JCKfdYisSoQgzeWXQD9eiGMtTz.png) [Utopia, Hell, Criminals, Police, Immigrants and a safe nights sleep](https://peakd.com/hive-153850/@terganftp/utopia-hell-criminals-police-immigrants-and-a-safe-nights-sleep)

@terganftp shared his beautiful post with us. He told us about how his place was both an enjoyable place to be and somewhere to be scared of. So many factors made it worth living in and so many factors made it hell. It's up to the residents to decide how they perceive it. ![hl_sunday_divider_1.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/kronias/23uEykc6xXRrHB77oM7dAoxjpirAkC7hv2RygbRsXd9JCKfdYisSoQgzeWXQD9eiGMtTz.png) [The importance of internships and voluntary work in science](https://peakd.com/hive-153850/@gwajnberg/the-importance-of-internships-and)

In this post, @gwajnberg talks about his first job. He tells us about how he went to a place for an internship and how that experience helped to shape his academic and professional career. He also went through various jobs over the years that were instrumental in making him who he is today. ![hl_sunday_divider_1.png](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/kronias/23uEykc6xXRrHB77oM7dAoxjpirAkC7hv2RygbRsXd9JCKfdYisSoQgzeWXQD9eiGMtTz.png)
