The Saunderverse is live!

Okie dokie, folks! We've got some great news — the Saunderverse is up and running, and Patreon has officially approved the page!
You can check it out here: https://www.patreon.com/thesaunderverse

This is great news for both Labyssitory and Emily fans. I know the two don’t always mesh well — there are Labyssitory fans who don’t enjoy the Emily Saunders series, and Emily fans who aren’t into the rest of the Labyssitory content. So, this separation really is for the best.

Of course, it’ll take a bit of time to fully complete the transition. But from now on, Emily’s Twitter (https://x.com/thesaunderverse), DeviantArt (https://www.deviantart.com/thesaunderverse), and Discord (https://discord.gg/j5Ycyn8bR9) will handle the bulk of her promotion, with little or no mention of the Labyssitory.

That said, the Labyssitory DeviantArt page is still packed with historical promos for Emily that link to the Labyssitory Patreon — and there are just too many of them to go back and edit individually. So, I’ll have to let time sort that out naturally.

Now, I’m still figuring out how to handle Emily’s archive content on the new Saunderverse Patreon. My current idea is to set up a special OneDrive folder — we'll just call it The Saunderverse — containing an up-to-date collection of all Labyssitory archive folders relevant to Emily Saunders and other like-minded characters (e.g., Sarah X, Kaytrixis, etc.).

My intention is to offer access to this folder as a store product — possibly priced around $20 for permanent access. (The link would still be refreshed monthly to discourage abuse, but you’d only pay once.)

Anyone who was previously subscribed to the Labyssitory archives tier would not need to purchase it, as they already have everything. And of course, the new $3 Saunderverse tier will cover all new content going forward.

The only hitch is that the store function isn’t available on the new Saunderverse Patreon just yet. From what I’ve read, it typically appears later — possibly after financial verification or other setup steps. I’ll give it some time.

If it doesn’t appear, I may have to create a higher tier just to house a special Patreon post with the same content — but I’d prefer not to. The store product would be cheaper, neater, and lower-pressure. We’ll see what happens!

“We’ll see” seems to be my catchphrase lately — but hey, these things take time. Thanks for your patience. At least the Patreon is live now, so I can get started making things for it!

Take care, guys!
