Muse Food – Fireworks

By Cynthia Sax on July 4, 2023

Watching fireworks always inspires me to write really intense, action-packed space battle scenes.

The sounds of the fireworks detonating, the explosions, the colors, the falling to the ground of the ‘debris’ – it is all awesome muse food.

I usually get so wrapped up in imagining the scenes I forget to take photos of the fireworks. (sheepish grin)

Strive For Forever


This cyborg seeks to vanquish an ancient entity and save his curvy human female.

Euryale made a terrible mistake. She opened a container she shouldn’t have touched and released one of the oldest lifeforms in existence. That all-powerful entity is now utilizing her as its host body and is slowly draining her energy.

Soon, she’ll die.

Euryale has accepted this fate and is determined to use her remaining moments in the universe to save as many lives as she can.

Her plans do NOT include a smoldering-hot, poetry-wielding cyborg willing to decimate entire planets to save her.

While under the control of the Humanoid Alliance, Strive, a K Model cyborg, disobeyed direct orders and refused to kill on their behalf. If he hadn’t escaped their cruel clutches, his defiance would have led to his death.

The male knowingly risked that fate to save the lifespans of complete strangers.

There is nothing he wouldn’t do to protect Euryale. The curvy human female is his genetic match, the one being he is destined to defend.

And she is in danger.

Strive would break every vow, cross every boundary, risk absolutely everything to keep her from harm.

Including battle a deity no one has ever defeated.

***

Strive For Forever is Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.

It features an inspired cyborg, a joke-cracking scientist, and an all-powerful deity with plans of his own.

Fireworks And Other Explosions

By Cynthia Sax on July 4, 2022

I often look at photos of fireworks before writing an explosion scene (one of my favorite scenes to write – grins). The bursts of light often inspire me.

The Dear Wonderful Hubby took these photos while attending the Calgary Stampede.

The pops of color are super exciting.

This makes me think of a firefight in space. (smiles)

Fireworks In Chicago

By Cynthia Sax on July 4, 2014

Since today is July 4th, a celebration in the US, and Tuesday was Canada Day, I thought I’d share some of my fireworks photos from one of my July 4ths spent in Chicago.

(You can click on the photos to enlarge them.)

We stood near Buckingham Fountain, yes, the same fountain featured in Married With Children. There were SO many people.

Unfortunately, there were also lights and bit of rain.

The dear wonderful hubby and I had a wonderful time though. As my grandma used to say “I’m not made of sugar. I won’t melt.” And I didn’t (grins).

Bee, Nicolas and Hawke from Sinful Rewards will, of course, be spending July 4th in Chicago. Hawke will be watching the fireworks from his balcony. Our bad boy doesn’t intend to wear clothes. Nicolas will be sitting in his tiny park, a phone pressed against one ear. Bee and her best friend Cyndi will be taking turns using the new telescope Cyndi purchased. Cyndi has stocked up on jellybeans from her family’s plant. Bee will make some snacks.

Sinful Rewards 1

Cynthia Sax

Belinda “Bee” Carter is a good girl; at least, that’s what she tells herself. And a good girl deserves a nice guy—just like the gorgeous and moody billionaire Nicolas Rainer. He is everything she wants in a man.

Or so she thinks, until she takes a look through her telescope and sees a naked, tattooed man on the balcony across the courtyard. Hawke is mysterious, the bad boy she knows will bring only heartbreak. He has been watching her, and that makes him all the more enticing.

But when a mysterious and anonymous text message dares her to do something bad, she must decide if she is really the good girl she has always claimed to be, or if she’s willing to risk everything for her secret fantasy of being watched.

Is her mystery man the reclusive billionaire with a wild side or the darkly dangerous bad boy?
