I don’t know why, but I’m finding it tremendously difficult to get work done and have anything like free time this year at E3. I’ve really slowed down in my old age, I suppose. Let’s take stock of what I’ve written, shall we?

Normally I’d have filed like two dozen stories by now, none of which were droll observations from the show floor. I can’t decide if this is a change for the better or worse. Ah well.
I saw that dead-eyed Mama puppet taking a break in some sparsely-populated corridor. She was sitting on a steep set of grey stairs, slumped over, and her head was on sideways. When I close my eyes, I see her.
Thanks for the heads-up on SotC – nice to see someone out there checking it out at E3 and reporting on the silky smooth framerate. I knew there was a reason I didn’t get around to finishing it on the PS2 – it was to wait for the remake and enjoy the experience in full. It certainly wasn’t because I wasn’t very good at it and got stuck on one of the bosses…
