The Changing Future

By Cynthia Sax on March 31, 2023

I recently bought mouthwash. This mouthwash claims to have 12 hour protection and work even if we eat or drink.

12 hour protection.

That means, if it works as claimed, I’ll no longer wake up with morning breath.

That also means, if it works as claimed and it becomes the standard, NO ONE, including a cyborg’s human female, will ever wake up with morning breath.

Sexy times without brushing our teeth become much more…sexy.

Until that happens, the human females in my stories will still tackle the morning breath issue. But I can envision a future where this is no longer an problem.

I think that’s amazing!

Throwback Thursday – Chasing Mayhem

By Cynthia Sax on March 30, 2023

Chasing Mayhem is truly a space adventure.

Mayhem is one of the wildest cyborg warriors I’ve ever written. Imee, the Receiver i.e. Bounty Hunter-like heroine, matches him exploit for exploit. She is so very kicka$$.

And we are first introduced to Kralj, the all knowing, all powerful Ruler of the Refuge and hero of Dark Thoughts, in this story.

Wild. Free. Hers.

Mayhem has spent his lengthy lifespan obeying the Humanoid Alliance’s rules. Finally free from their cruel control, the cyborg warrior plans to cause chaos. He infiltrates a remote settlement, provokes the savage locals until they want him dead, and allows himself to be captured by the sexiest little Retriever he has ever laid his mechanically-enhanced eyes on.

Imee’s sole mission in life is to keep her family alive. To do this, she must hunt rebels, returning them to the Humanoid Alliance’s evil clutches where they will be executed. She doesn’t allow herself to feel anything for her targets…until she meets a tall, muscular cyborg with wild hair and even wilder eyes.

With his sure hands, laughing lips and erotic holds, Mayhem makes Imee’s body sizzle and her resistance melt. Their love is doomed. She must deliver the warrior to his death or she’ll place her family’s safety at risk. But she can’t resist him.

Imee soon discovers that Mayhem, life, and love are never predictable.

Chasing Mayhem is Book 5 in the Cyborg Sizzle series and is a STANDALONE story.
It is also a BBW Cyborg SciFi Romance.

Raw Desires – Escaping From Her Chamber

By Cynthia Sax on March 29, 2023

To write a book well, writers have to research a gazillion different often-small things.

One of the scenes in Raw Desires that involved a great amount of research is when Taytu was attempting to escape from her ‘prison’ chamber on Mercury Minor.

For example, I had to ensure she didn’t fry her a$$ with the energy in the wires she planned to strip. To figure out how to trip the circuits and stop that energy flow, I consulted online articles AND eventually a very helpful electrician (who thought it was super cool that he was helping with a novel).

And all this research resulted in a guess.

(grins)

Because the energy in the scene is alien-sourced and the circuits would be equally different and futuristic.

Gardening Tips – Sources Of Seeds

By Cynthia Sax on March 28, 2023

I buy very few seeds for my vegetable garden.

I sourced the seeds for my first tomato plants from tomatoes the Dear Wonderful Hubby bought in the grocery store.

He found a huge clearance heirloom tomato in a last day of sale bin, for example. I scooped out some of the seeds, fermented them in water for a week, dried them and stored them for the next year. The tomato plants grown from those seeds produced beautiful big tomatoes.

Some of the tomatoes grown from the grocery store selections were admittedly a bit funky. We ate them but I didn’t harvest those seeds for the next year.

Another great source of seeds is other gardeners.

I have a small backyard. I only have space for three cucumber plants, for example. But the package of seeds has a gazillion seeds in them. (The seeds in grocery store cucumbers aren’t viable.) So I give the excess seeds away.

I also harvest WAY more seeds than I’ll ever need for the next year. Seeds DO go bad. I prefer someone uses them.

If you ask a few people, you’ll likely receive more seeds than you’ll ever need. (grins)

Muse Food – The Passage Of Time

By Cynthia Sax on March 27, 2023

One of my favorite scenes to write is when the heroine or hero goes back to their childhood home and they see the changes that have occured in that place they once knew so well.

Because while their home is frozen in one state in their minds, time hasn’t stopped in reality.

Nature might have reclaimed buildings as it has in this photo (the Dear Wonderful Hubby snapped it in the Dominican Republic).

Or perhaps new occupants have altered the landscape with their construction projects. Or the heroine’s or hero’s families, if they still live there, have implemented changes.

Time has marched forward. And that can evoke fierce emotions.

Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – March 26th

By Cynthia Sax on March 26, 2023

I continue to work on the first draft of Strive For Forever, the fourth core story in the Cyborg Unity series (releasing in July). I really love this story and I suspect you’ll love it also. (grins)

Have a wonderful week, my friends. (big hugs) Enjoy the last few days of March. Look up at the stars at night. Listen for the night birds. Relish the breeze on your skin and the scent of the soil under your feet.

The Similarity Of Alien Planets

By Cynthia Sax on March 25, 2023

Humans have adapted specifically to life here on Earth.

The range of acceptable oxygen levels in breathable air, for us, for example, is very narrow. The optimal oxygen level for humans is about 21 percent. If oxygen levels fall below 19.5 percent for an extended period of time, bad things start to happen. If oxygen levels increase above 23.5 percent for an extended period of time, bad things start to happen.

We’re as sensitive to other gases and minerals. And to temperature (which is why a 1.5C increase is a BIG deal). And to gravity.

And…well…to almost everything else around us.

What this, unfortunately, means is for us to be able to live naturally (i.e. outside of a climate-controlled structure) on another planet, that planet has to closely resemble Earth.

The human females in my cyborg romances might temporarily visit planets with different specs. But they have to wear suits while venturing outside their ships.

They will be found and/or want to live permanently on alien planets that are similar to our own wonderful Earth.

Death On The Nile And Guessing Twists

By Cynthia Sax on March 24, 2023

Spoiler Alert – This post will talk very generally about the movie Death On The Nile. If you haven’t yet watched this movie, you might wish to skip this post.

The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I watched Death On The Nile, the 2022 movie based on the Agatha Christie novel. Neither of us had read the book or watched any early versions of this story.

Yet we both guessed who killed the first victim a scene before the body was discovered.

That might have been the director’s expectation.

It might have been a romance novel situation.

In romance novels, we almost always immediately know who will end up happy, in love and in a relationship. Heck, the book description indirectly tells us that information! (grins) If the description talks about Raw and Taytu, Raw and Taytu will be in a happy, loving relationship in the last chapter of the story.

Maybe we were expected to know who did it early in the Death On The Nile movie. Maybe, as with romance novels, we were expected to enjoy the journey to that obvious conclusion.

The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I did enjoy the journey. The sets were amazing and we both love Egypt.

Throwback Thursday – Dark Fire

By Cynthia Sax on March 23, 2023

Dark Fire combines many of my favorite types of stories.

It has a dragon-like hero. It is an alien romance. The hero is a warrior. The heroine is a thief. There is plenty of action and heated encounters and a dash of humor.

It is a fun, thrilling story and I think you’ll really enjoy it!

Dark Fire Alien Romance

Dark Fire

What the Beast wants, the Beast gets.

Dare’s savage nature has made him an outcast among his kind. The silver-scaled Dracheon warrior can’t control his inner beast. It’s too strong. When his primitive instincts told him his destined mate was on Carinae E, he had no choice. He had to travel to the outlaw planet. There, he hoped to meet a female powerful enough to survive his Drache.

He finds Faylee, a delicate little human.

Faylee is the best thief on the planet. Everyone she encounters mistakes her for a young boy…except for a tall, shiny warrior from off-planet. When she gazes into Dare’s flame-filled eyes, he makes her feel, for the first time, like a desirable female. The fire-breathing male has her yearning for hot kisses, fierce embraces, and a future filled with love. She doesn’t realize mating with him might be the last thing she ever does.

Dare’s beast isn’t the only danger on the planet. An enemy from the past has returned and he’s determined to stop Dare and Faylee…permanently. They’ll need luck and the assistance of every warrior in the Refuge to stay alive.

Dark Fire is a STANDALONE SciFi Romance set in a gritty, dark world.

Gardening Envy

By Cynthia Sax on March 22, 2023

I’ve been looking at the photos posted by buddies in Europe, the Southern US and other places. Their gardens look AMAZING. They are lush and green. They have flowers and color and everything is vividly alive.

I have big time envy. (grins)

The last frost in my corner of the universe is usually around May 20th. That means I shouldn’t really start many of my plants inside the house, in the grow station, until the beginning of April.

Which is dang soon! YES!

I am SO looking forward to gardening this year. It is one of my favorite stress releases.
