Oct. 24th, 2009 07:30 pmSo I really have to send off my short story and poetry on Wednesday - Thursday at the latest - for the CBC literary awards. The short story needs a lot of work especially, though the poetry's almost ready to go.
And I'm still working on all the material that has to accompany my novel to the publisher.
So naturally my brain shuts off tonight, and I'm internet-surfing. And not even useful, good stuff like answering e-mail, or reading well-thought-out blogs and articles.
Tonight's interesting fact: the makers of the Silent Hill horror franchise are not only returning to psychological horror, they claim their new game builds a psychological profile of you and adjusts the story and characters accordingly, presumably for maximum horror.
(Frightening and not-worksafe trailer here.)
I'll believe it when I see it. But if they do pull it off, it'll be the scariest in the series, if for no other reason than that it'll mean something as low-tech as the PS2 can understand a human being and react accordingly. This is Turing test material right here.
