Today didn’t go as well as yesterday. I still came in slightly over 2000 words, and hope for more tomorrow. I wrote the scene with The Hanged Man, and it came out pretty well. I don’t know that his lesson is finished, but the Hanged Man has been buried. Yak guy needs to reflect upon it while he’s crossing the steppes. Maybe he can find some connection to the Hermit and decide he misjudged the fellow to a degree. Maybe the yak can throw that in his face, which is what usually happens.

When he gets home, he will find the shit’s really hit the fan. This will move the story into act three, and he’s going to have to make some big, life changing, decisions. I need to get him home, but I don’t want to lose the idea that it takes a long time to ride a yak…
