    SAPR Rewrite Volume 3 Cover by MRK50

    In another sign of how overly optimistic I once was about how long it would take me to get through this rewrite, back in January 2021 I had a cover for Volume 3 done by MRK50, whose absence from the fandom since then is much lamented. With the new phase of the story due to start on Monday, I can finally share it with you all:

    Shameless shilling of my non-MLP fics

    Those of you who enjoy SAPR, but who possibly find it a bit too big, a bit too slow, or those of who you don't have any problems with it at all but would like to read more RWBY fics from me may be interested in a couple of new fics that I've started fairly recently without any MLP elements.

    Team SAPR and Fluffy by Tianshiko

    A little over a year ago I commissioned this artwork of Team SAPR, the stuffed beowolf and mascot of Benni Havens'; the artist, the very talented Tianshiko, had some health issues and wasn't able to work on it for a long time, but now they've finished it and I hope you'll all agree that it was worth the wait.

    On the future of SAPR

    So... when I first started rewriting SAPR I told everyone that it would not impede the forward movement of the story. I never kept that promise exactly as I intended it at the time that I made it, but I never exactly broke it either.

    Until now.

Introducing a co-creator · 7:59pm Sep 25th, 2014

There has been a slight alteration to the summary for Comes the Sunset: SirViper235 is now credited as the co-creator. I was going to call him the co-writer but, since I still do all the actual writing (for those of you who may say that I haven't done any in a while, progress will resume now that How the Sunset Sparkles has been wrapped up, and I'm over 4k words into the latest chapter), I think that creator is more apposite.

SirViper is such an exuberant dynamo of ideas, and so many of them will be finding their way into Comes the Sunset in future chapters, that it seemed easier just to say that he had a big hand in this rather than to keep pointing out in author's notes which particular details first sprang out of his brain. Of particular note, Celestia and Luna's father has already been seen here and there and will play a more important role in the future and...anything else would be spoilers.

Sir Viper is a really great guy, and at times his enthusiasm for this story has eclipsed my own so I really am indebted to him, so I'd like to encourage you all to go and check out his own Sunset Shimmer fic Shadow of the Sunset, which has an interesting premise with the potential for lots of juicy emotion later on.
