    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.

A brief SAPR hiatus · 1:38pm Mar 12th, 2021

Hi everyone. I'm sorry to say that SAPR will be going on a semi-hiatus for the next week. That means that there will be no new rewrite chapter out tomorrow or Monday, possibly not Wednesday either. There will be a future chapter out on Thursday because I don't want to leave you hanging on that cliffhanger.

This is because work has become even more time-consuming than usual over the second half of this week, I got no writing one last night because I was working (it doesn't help that, thanks to our wonderful server system, things that take 2 hours during working hours can be done in 20 minutes at 8pm when sensible people have logged off), it's starting to look like it'll be the same story tonight and I might even end up working over the weekend to get this piece out of the way.

I'm sorry about this, but it would help me out a lot if I didn't have to worry about the fact that I'm not producing enough chapters at a fast enough pace on top of the worry I'm already feeling about the fact that I'm almost certain to miss my deadline.

You take care of You! We can wait.

Work before pleasure and all that. You are under no obligation to produce this for us, so if you need some time to get Real Life in order before you can make a quality product then that is what you need to do.

We will still be here ready, waiting, and eager for your return next week.:twilightsmile:

I feel your pain. I was able to swap shifts to get some quality server time, but I know that's not an option for everyone.

Take care of yourself first. More than willing to wait for story updates.

Best of luck with your work.

Take good care, aye? The rate of work was ridiculous tbh. Could barely keep up with it all.
In fact, made me a bit jelly.

I am not upset, or anything at you, I was just wondering if we could have gotten a rewrite chapter if not next week but sometime soon.

yeah you have been like, THE most consistent and prolific writer on this site for a bit. take a break dawg.
