The Truth and Mannequin Hair

Originally, I was going to post Chapter 25 of The Truth here. Trouble is, there's no Chapter 26 ready for next week and there won't be in the immediate future. I never did get back to The Truth after the short hiatus between chapters 9 and 10 earlier this year. So I'm putting The Truth back on hiatus as of the prior release. Chapter 24 is a better stopping point than the end of Chapter 25, I think.

In its place, I have 6 chapters of a story I've basically abandoned. It doesn't really end properly, but the stopping point is good enough. It's called Mannequin Hair. I started writing this story in 2008 and, for the most part, I haven't really edited it in almost 10 years. Like many stories I wrote back then, the "magic" is over-engineered. (I have at least 3 other long stories in the vault with similar over engineering: The Collar (circa 2002), The Device (circa 2003), Remote Control (circa 2005), Mannequin Hair.)

As I said, Mannequin Hair is an older story. And I don't plan to modernize it for this release. In the first few paragraphs, the protagonist checks their answering machine to see if there are any messages. If I were to figure out what comes next, I'd go back and remove the answering machine from the story.

I had considered just letting the Tuesday update go silent. A lot of my upcoming short stories in the Saturday slot are longer than my usual fair. Lately I've been consistently over 3k words in my short stories. Half of the upcoming stories could be two parters. But I felt funny releasing several two part stories in a row.
