Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – February 2
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I spotted this pretty kitty while we were trekking around Dubai.
The corporate tax returns are DONE! Whew! That is NOT my favorite part of this awesome career. That is for certain! But they’ve been completed for the year and I’m thankful for that.
I’ve decided to put together a third Cyborg World Omnibus. I already have the cover (which is GORGEOUS and deserves to be seen). It will feature already released stories. The Dear Wonderful Hubby formats my stories and omnibuses for free. And someone might enjoy it.
Hey, why not?
(grins)
Have a wonderful week, my friend. (big hugs) Do you have something – a cover, workout gear, a can of soup – you’re not using? Consider using it or give it away to someone else who will use it. Put that positive energy out into the universe!
***
Claiming Cure
A proud cyborg medic meets his human match.
***
Cyra has tasks to complete before she dies.
There are patients to heal, a dangerous mission to undertake, and a world to save. She doesn’t have time to entertain uninvited guests.
Especially one coldhearted cyborg medic who thinks he’s better than her.
The male might be breathtakingly handsome. His sternly set lips might be extremely kissable. And his touch might draw out a passion she didn’t think she was capable of feeling.
But he’s also a distraction, one that might doom millions of innocent beings to a painful, horrible death.
Cure isn’t emotionless. He feels…greatly. Listening to that malfunction has caused other beings pain and suffering in the past.
He refuses to allow his desires to cloud his judgment now.
His resolve is tested when he’s forced to associate with the most provoking, alluring medic in the universe.
Cyra is his genetic match, the one being in the universe he is fated to protect, touch, claim. She’s clever and beautiful, and the need to hold her almost downs his systems.
But now is not the time to indulge his great wanting.
Cure has an assignment to complete.
If he fails to accomplish his goals, everyone he cares for, including his human female, will die.
***
Claiming Cure is a standalone Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
It features two skilled medics determined to ignore the toe-curling attraction between them, a perilous impossible mission, and foes seeking to ensure they never heal another being ever again.

Twisters And Sequels
Spoiler Alert – This post will talk about Twisters and it WILL contain spoilers. If you haven’t yet watched this film, you might wish to skip this post.
I watched Twisters recently and I enjoyed it. I doubt I’d watch it again but it had fun moments, some great (yet very much fictional) tornado scenes.
And it was a fresh take on the original story. It was promoted as a sequel but there has been 28 long years between the first one and this second one and…the writers reused much of story and character arcs.
The story of the young heroine touched tragically by tornados and skilled in that science is familiar. Her reluctance to help is familiar. The experiments she is involved in are familiar.
But that’s okay. Because most of the viewership is new. And I, part of the established viewership, enjoyed the similarities. I liked that I knew what to expect and got exactly that.
Sequels don’t have to be 100% new to be worth publishing/producing.

Throwback Thursday – Strike Zone
Have you ever asked for help from someone you believed was an employee, only to find out they weren’t one?
I have. (sheepish grin) Multiple times.
And in Strike Zone, that is what happens to Kesser, the human heroine.
Her friend is abducted. She assumes the tall muscular male in a hooded cloak is a bodyguard and she asks…no, it is worse than that…she DEMANDS he help her rescue her friend.
Except Strike isn’t a bodyguard. He’s a cyborg on a dangerous mission.
But he agrees to help Kesser. Because she is his genetic match, the one being he was manufactured to be with and protect. AND his mission is taking him to the same place.
***
Strike Zone
A cyborg devoted to duty…and to her.
***
While attending a party, Kesser, the daughter of her planet’s leader, witnesses the abduction of her best friend and her best friend’s mate.
She’s determined to rescue them. Preferably without fracturing the fragile peace agreement her mom has crafted with the abductors’ planet.
The only issue is…she has never participated in a retrieval mission.
Searching for assistance, she approaches the mate’s guard. The male, with his big broad shoulders and deep growly voice, affects her like no other being ever has.
Kesser wants him. She trusts him. And she requires his stealth combat skills.
Desperately.
Strike is no guard. The D Model cyborg has been sent to the sector to discreetly investigate a potential planet-destroying situation.
When a curvy human female with big brown eyes requests his help with a rescue, he doesn’t hesitate to say yes. She’s his genetic match, the one being he was manufactured to protect.
She’s also traveling to the next planet he has to search. He plans to claim his female while he fulfills his responsibilities to his kind.
Neither Strike nor Kesser realizes the dangers facing them are far greater than they imagine. Their enemies are converging, and one failed mission could doom the entire universe.
***
Strike Zone is a standalone, mistaken-identity, Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
It features a cyborg warrior with a finely honed sense of honor, a human support being taking on her first dangerous mission, and an evil that threatens everyone in existence.

Reuse In Gardening
Last week, I mentioned I reuse used yogurt containers (cleaned, with holes punched in the bottoms) as seedling pots and I also reuse used rotisserie chicken trays (cleaned) as trays to hold those pots.
I do this to save money but also to get one more use out of the ‘garbage’ the Dear Wonderful Hubby and I create.
Gardening is a GREAT way to reduce waste.
We break down brown cardboard boxes for composting or place them on top of garden beds overwinter. We use the flyers made from newspapers to craft fast, easily biodegradable pots we can simply plop into the ground. Old pipes from the recent solar installation are being used as plant stakes. Juice jugs become watering jugs.
Of course, anything that can be composted (tree branches, leaves, bamboo forks, etc) is composted or buried in the ground for makeshift hügelkultur.
Every piece of garbage we create, we look at and ask ourselves if it can serve us in the garden (or in other areas of our lives). This is a small way we try to make a little bit of a difference.

Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – January 26
This cat was spotted in Mauritius and perfectly encompasses my laziness level today. (grins)
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I have returned to our annual trek to Vegas for the CES (Consumers Electronics Show). We paired it with an 8 night cruise out of LA along the west coast. And we had an awesome time.
This upcoming week, we have to complete the corporate income tax return and…sleep.
Have a wonderful week, my friends! (tackle hugs) I hope it is a sleep-filled one for you also. Take care of yourself. Drink some water. Get some fresh air. Laugh and love and LIVE. Treasure your time on this fantastical planet!

IF And Having A Support System
Spoiler Alert – This post will talk about IF and it WILL contain spoilers. If you haven’t yet watched this film, you might wish to skip this post.
I didn’t have any interest in watching IF. A film about imaginary friends didn’t appeal to me.
I am one of six kids and I am also an extreme introvert. As a child, I certainly wasn’t inventing more people to spend time with. (grins)
But IF was playing on repeat on the cruise ship’s movie channel and…I got sucked in.
THREE times.
Because, stars, this movie was AWESOME. I laughed my a$$ off. AND I cried so hard.
The film could be interpreted in a variety of ways. I viewed it as an exploration of the importance of support systems.
We need them. Even if it means inventing imaginary support systems and beings.
And when we lose them, that could be through the death of a support being or growing up and getting too busy to maintain or believe in our support systems, it impacts us. Greatly.
The characters in our stories need support systems also. Sure, they might go it alone for a few scenes. But they eventually need to either establish a new support system or touch base with an existing one.
Because we, humans, need support systems. Even if they are all in our minds.

Throwback Thursday – Intrepid Encounter
Intrepid Encounter is a true enemies-to-lovers romance.
Olrun, the VALKYRIE heroine, is sincerely trying to kill Intrepid, the cyborg hero. Because…of course, she is. (grins) She’s a Valkyrie, a famed female warrior.
Intrepid doesn’t want to end Olrun’s lifespan. He realizes she is his genetic match, the one being he was manufactured to love.
But he won’t allow ANYONE to damage the beings living on the cyborg Homeland and if that means decimating his own happiness, he’ll do that.
That’s the type of cyborg he is.
***
Intrepid Encounter
Cyborg vs. Valkyrie
Blood will be spilled and hearts will be captured.
Intrepid and his crew on the Dauntless guard the border to the cyborg sector. The D Model cyborg captain has dedicated his lifespan to protecting their homeland. He’ll do anything to secure the space and keep his brethren safe.
That includes confronting a Valkyrie intent on vengeance.
The female warrior is beautiful, brave, strong…and Intrepid’s genetic match. She’s the one being he is fated to claim. Her voice causes his circuits to hum. Her touch produces a passion he struggles to control.
But if he has to stop her…permanently…to protect his kind, he will make that sacrifice.
Olrun has been tracking the whereabouts of a one-of-a-kind object. The stolen item is critical to the safety of her Valkyrie sisters, and she’ll do anything to retrieve it.
That includes waging war on a tall, broad-shouldered cyborg warrior sporting brilliant-blue eyes and grimly set lips.
The male might…just might…have battle skills matching her own. And that excites the immortal fighter. She craves his rough handling, his punishing embrace, his stern words.
But Olrun’s desire for the cyborg won’t distract her from achieving her goal. She will shield her fellow Valkyries from danger, even if that means ending Intrepid’s lifespan in the process.
Intrepid Encounter is an enemies-to-lovers Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
It features a protective cyborg, a vengeful Valkyrie, and a destiny neither of them can predict.

Sowing Seeds And Taking Names
Or, rather, recording names. So I remember which seeds I’ve placed in the reused yogurt containers. (grins)
I planted 3 seeds in every container (holes were punched in the bottom of these containers).
Two flats (i.e. reused rotisserie chicken trays) contain eggplants (those seeds were purchased from the dollar store), one flat contains mini bell peppers (those seeds were harvested from 2024’s mini bell peppers), and I also planted a couple containers of parsley.
They were then placed in the basement grow station.
And now…I wait for my favorite moments of gardening – when the baby plants first poke out of the soil! Woot!

Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – January 19
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I stayed at the Maison Du Nord when we recently visited Mauritius. It was an absolutely delightful boutique hotel with amazing customer service and a wonderful buffet breakfast featuring crepes and local fruits.
And Maison Du Nord had its own resident guard cat! This extremely skilled hunter is shown here protecting the lobby. (grins)
As you likely guessed it, the Dear Wonderful Hubby and I have been traveling. We’re seeing the world while I figure out which writing projects to work on next.
These writing projects will be pitched to agents, publishers, or other entities so they likely won’t be published in the immediate future. Big wheels turn slowly and all that. (smiles)
Have a wonderful week, my friends. (big hugs) Do some traveling of your own – whether this is around the world or into the next neighborhood. There are so many delightful and interesting places all around us, alcoves we haven’t yet explored. Get out there and sightsee!

A Quiet Place: Day One And Seemingly Trivial Missions
Spoiler Alert: This post will be talking about A Quiet Place: Day One, an AWESOME Sci-Fi movie, and it may contain spoilers. If you haven’t yet watched this movie, you might wish to skip this post.
I finally found the time to watch A Quiet Place: Day One and I absolutely LOVED it. The character arcs were amazing. The details were impressive. Sam, the main character, was relatable.
We find out right away that she is in hospice. She doesn’t have long to live.
And her ‘mission’ is to eat a slice of pizza at a little pizzeria in Harlem.
This mission seems trivial. We, viewers, could have easily rolled our eyes at her insistence that she be taken to get pizza.
Except we see how this normally gruff, suck-it-up-buttercup woman almost breaks down into tears when she’s told the trip to the pizzeria would have to be delayed. We KNOW then that this mission is much more important to her than it seems.
It is so important that an invasion by human-devouring aliens doesn’t stop her (and her cat!) from attempting to undertake it.
THAT is impressive acting and character building.

But he’s also a distraction, one that might doom millions of innocent beings to a painful, horrible death.
Cure isn’t emotionless. He feels…greatly. Listening to that malfunction has caused other beings pain and suffering in the past.
He refuses to allow his desires to cloud his judgment now.
His resolve is tested when he’s forced to associate with the most provoking, alluring medic in the universe.
Cyra is his genetic match, the one being in the universe he is fated to protect, touch, claim. She’s clever and beautiful, and the need to hold her almost downs his systems.
But now is not the time to indulge his great wanting.
Cure has an assignment to complete.
If he fails to accomplish his goals, everyone he cares for, including his human female, will die.
