So, a very kind reader on AO3 gave me a gift today, a SAPR-inspired fic called Red and Gold and I really recommend reading it because it is so good. I had the biggest smile on my face while reading it, she has some ideas for how Cinder could fight that I hadn't considered yet, the way that she writes the characters is spot on (for SAPR, at least).

Just read it. You won't regret it, I promise.

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.

Just dropping a link to a fun little Eminem filk inspired by the latest chapter of SAPR; strong language but worth checking out anyway.

With the next phase of the SAPR rewrite beginning tomorrow it's time to share the art I commissioned for Volume 2 by Cosmo Kyrin.

The second part of the SAPR Rewrite is now complete, with the Mistral Vacation arc having been rewritten.

With several weeks having passed since the battle at the docks, Ruby joins Sunset, Jaune and Pyrrha on vacation to the historic city of Mistral, where the group makes a mixed impression on Pyrrha's mother, the formidable Lady Nikos.

My beta reader, Cody, commissioned this lovely piece of art by Rainbow Zebra to accompany the latest chapter of the SAPR rewrite:

As I just stated in my last blog post, the first two arcs of SAPR have been rewritten (in some places more extensively than others) and the second half of volume 1 is about to begin.

As the various different parts of the story are going up on AO3 as separate stories, this gave me the opportunity to commission more art, this time by the very talented Mayuki, whom I was fortunate to get a slot with before she became famous.

The SAPR Rewrite has now covered off the entirety of the first two arcs, Sunset's rivalry with Pyrrha and the Jaunedice storyline. Some important differences from the original:

Sunset first meets Ruby at the dust shop where they both fight Torchwick. Sunset battles the man himself while Ruby deals with his goons; thanks to the intervention of Neo, Torchwick escapes.
