An Artist You Might Not Know: Paul Cook & The Chronicles

A few weeks I discovered the life changing artist Paul Cook & The Chronicles. He's from London and he's an Indie/Alternative/Folk/Spacey-Sound/Ambient kind of artist. His song Candelight (You can buy it on iTunes here) touches my soul. It has this "middle of the night, lost my love but still want her and I'm at a motel wishing she'd come back to me" kind of feel. Highly suggest you look into him if you ever get the chance. The name of his album out now is Paul Cook & The Chronicles - Volume One.

Q&A with Existence Games -- Creators of Exodus, The Trading Card Game

Q: How old are you now? When did you first create the trading card game and what was the inspiration for it?

A: There are only two of us here at Existence Games: a boy and a girl; a brother and sister team. We are currently ages 18 and 13, but we were only ages 17 and 12 when we seriously started working on the game. We first came up with the idea for this trading card game in September of 2011, and here we are, roughly a year later, promoting and selling our polished product.

We were inspired to create this game because of a number of things. The main reason was because we grew up (and are still growing up) playing trading card games that had too many complicated, unnecessary rules, and themes that were too dark to reconcile with our Christian faith. Additionally, it has been a dream of ours to create a real trading card game since we were about 4 years old!

Q: I personally love the designs of the cards, how did the inspiration for their design come about? Who designed them?

I Like Him He Doesn't Like Me

Question from Valerie of Dallas, Texas:
I really really like this guy and I thought he liked me but one day I had made fun of his current girlfriend out of jealousy and ever since he's stopped talking to me. He deleted me off facebook, skype, twitter and won't respond to my texts, what should I do?

My Advice: I think you're better of letting him go. Yes I know it is one of those "easier said than done" kind of things bu it is for your better well being. I tell this to people all the time "Never cry over someone who wouldn't do the same for you". If he even felt the slightest bit the same way you feel about him he would've responded to you some how some way and not let something that tiny bother him or, for the matter, hurt you. So if he wants to talk to you then he can do it but you don't need to beg him to talk to you. There are plenty of other people who can make you happy and are meant for you to be with. I'm not fully in your business but it seems even if he did come around I hope you don't go any further than friends because whose to say, if you get in a relationship in the future, history won't repeat itself and he won't ignore you over something trivial like this again? Just my opinion.
