Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – April 30

By Cynthia Sax on April 30, 2023

Strive For Forever, the fourth core story in the Cyborg Unity series, is due to my Awesome Editor by end of my day today! I’ll be re-reading it a gazillion times today, ensuring everything flows and makes sense and likely adding some more unnecessary commas. (grins)

Tomorrow, I will sleep the sleep of the dead. I plan to sleep all week. Especially as I likely won’t get any sleep tonight.

Have a wonderful week, my friends. (big hugs) Consider catching up on your sleep also. Go to bed early or sleep in. Dream about romance heroes and heroines in books you’ve read. Be warm and cozy. Feel loved.

Raw Desires

His human female is attempting to kill him.
This cyborg finds that adorable.


Raw, a K model cyborg, is one of the lucky warriors who has located his genetic match. He hears his human female’s voice over the communication lines and immediately processes she is his.


Winning her affections will be a greater challenge. Battle has always been Raw’s focus. The rough-and-tough warrior has no idea how to engage anyone’s tender emotions.

Fortunately, he isn’t alone in the universe. His unmatched male friends help him craft a plan.

All Raw has to do is relay a few unsettlingly sweet words to his female and give her the thoroughly unfunctional wall decoration he has obtained. He projects she will then jump into his big, strong arms and beg him to claim her.

Taytu isn’t jumping anywhere. She has one mission—kill every cyborg in existence.

The huge, handsome male traveling to meet with her is her first target. His rough hands, firm lips, and sparkling, energy-infused eyes won’t save him from her vengeance. She has trained vigorously for this moment, and she won’t fail at her assigned task.

The cyborg will die.


Raw Desires is an enemies-to-lovers Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.

Non-Warrior Cyborgs And Dangerous Missions

By Cynthia Sax on April 29, 2023

Grin, the hero of Grin And Bare Him, and Strive, the hero of Strive For Forever (releasing in July), are both non-warrior cyborgs. Grin is an architect and Strive is an artist.

Their stories still involve dangerous missions.

Because we don’t have to be warriors to save the universe.

I spent a morning recently picking up earthworms stranded on the driveway after a rain. I moved them to the grass.

I saved their lives and I’m no warrior. (grins)

All I did was take action. Anyone can take action.

Book Brain In A Huge Way

By Cynthia Sax on April 28, 2023

Strive For Forever, the fourth core story in the Cyborg Unity series (releasing in July), is due to my Awesome Editor by end of my day (laughs) April 30th.

I’m DEEP into this story right now. I dream about Strive and Euryale and Adam. Their antics are at the forefront of my thoughts 24 hours a day.

This is my process. At this stage of writing a story, I’m ensuring continuity. I’m making certain all the tiny details hang together. I have to hold the entire story in my head.

Which means everything else gets a bit wild. Don’t expect deep, thoughtful posts here on this blog. (grins) I’m fortunate if I can relay a coherent thought.

Throwback Thursday – Ghost Of A Machine

By Cynthia Sax on April 27, 2023

If you love broken heroes, you’ll love Ghost Of A Machine.

Ghost is the most damaged cyborg warrior I’ve ever encountered. When he meets his female, he is basically feral. He’s a killing machine. Literally. And only she can stop him.

Lethe is likely the only being in the universe who truly understands him. She has survived horrific things also. And she needs Ghost as much as he needs her.

I love these two beings and I love this story!

Fragile. Stubborn. His.

Ghost, a C Model cyborg, has disconnected his machine from his human side. Severely damaged, he knows two things—the curvy human female on his ship belongs to him and he must keep her safe. He’ll stop at nothing to protect her, claim her, make her his.

Primitive. Damaged. Hers.

Lethe has seen the savage side of beings. The courageous Rebel captain has never met a male like Ghost. Overpoweringly dominant, he appeals to her on a primal level, filling her mind with thoughts of sweet surrender, hard kisses, and body-heating encounters against the warship’s walls.

They are two broken beings, one determined to protect, the other intent on flying into danger. Can love heal them both before they face their common enemy?

Ghost Of A Machine is Book 9 in the Cyborg Sizzle series and is a STAND-ALONE story.
It is also a BBW Cyborg SciFi Romance.

Being An Insect Lover

By Cynthia Sax on April 26, 2023

I’ve always been an insect lover. When I was a kid, I would try to build my own ant farms. I’d place dirt in a empty coffee tins, collect ants and then store these makeshift ant farms under my bed.

The ants would, of course, escape. Or the tins would get knocked over.

My Awesome Mom would NOT be amused.

My love for insects is why I often comment on unique insects on alien planets and why I feature insect aliens (like the Mantidae, the giant migrating praying mantis-resembling insects in Releasing Rage) in many of my stories.

There are so many awesome alien looking insects here on Earth and they serve as inspiration.

Sleeping Bumblebees

By Cynthia Sax on April 25, 2023

The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I spotted a bumblebee recently.

He was sleeping, snuggled up next to a tomato seedling in the basement grow station.

He was so very adorable, with his fuzzy bee bum sticking out from underneath the leaves.

And he was VERY grumpy when we transferred him outside and woke him up. I don’t think he is a morning bee.

Muse Food – Warnings

By Cynthia Sax on April 24, 2023

I’m perverse. So when the Dear Wonderful Hubby and I saw this warning at the Royal Naval Dockyards in Bermuda, the one thing I wanted to do desperately was climb the fence.

(grins)

We didn’t climb the fence.

But my reaction was a reminder to myself that characters don’t always react to warnings sensibly. They might become MORE determined to do the dangerous thing. They might dismiss the warning. They might not trust it or the being giving the warning.

This uncertainty makes stories more interesting, doesn’t it?

Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – April 23

By Cynthia Sax on April 23, 2023

I am working on the second draft of Strive For Forever, the fourth core story in the Cyborg Unity series (releasing in July)! Woot!

The first draft is the usual hot mess. (grins) I don’t know how I’d react if I ever miraculously created a coherent first draft. That would likely be a sign of the end of the world.

But the bones of the story are awesome. I love both Strive and his female and, of course, Adam, the entity using her as a host form. I think you’ll enjoy Strive For Forever.

Have a wonderful week, my friends. (big hugs) Say hi to someone in your neighborhood. Stop and look at a tree. Note the texture of its bark. Wonder at all it has seen over its lifespan. Take comfort in knowing you’re now part of its history! You’re one of the people that tree has seen!

Having Something To Lose

By Cynthia Sax on April 22, 2023

The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I lost two beloved Aunties recently.

It was hard to lose them.

But it was also a privilege.

Because we had the honor of knowing these wonderful people and loving them.

That grief we’re feeling? It is based in caring. We only mourn people or furbabies or things or lifestyles we had the good fortune to care about.

And not everyone, unfortunately, had that experience. They missed out on knowing them.

WE were the lucky ones. I remember that when I endure loss.

Mrs. Harris Goes To Paris And Goals

By Cynthia Sax on April 21, 2023

Spoiler Alert – This post will discuss the movie Mrs. Harris Goes To Paris and might have some (mild) spoilers. You might wish to skip this post if you haven’t yet watched this movie.

I recently watched Mrs. Harris Goes To Paris and I very much enjoyed it.

It was an escape, truly an escape.

Mrs. Harris, the main character, has a dream of owning a couture dress.

Yep. That is the sole goal – to obtain a dress.

It sounds silly but stars, the makers of this movie made me care about Mrs. Harris and her dream. I was cheering for her. I cried during some scenes. I was thoroughly enthralled with this movie.

And yes, it has a happy ending. I felt…lighter after watching it, as though my heart and my soul had a little break from (waves at everything).

Mrs. Harris Goes To Paris is a reminder that our goals and our characters’ goals don’t have to be huge. They should be meaningful but they can be as simple as obtaining a beautiful dress.
