Muse Food – Peacocks And Who Does The Courting
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I spotted this magnificent peacock in a community in Florida, USA.
This is a peacock, a male. We didn’t take many photos of the peahens, the females, because they are much, MUCH plainer.
We can tell, at a glance, who does the courting in that species. The males put on a grand show. The females sit back and evaluate.
I think about that when I build alien worlds. Who does the courting? Who has to impress their potential mates? How does that change the dynamic or their appearance or their behavior?

Strive For Forever
(This description is still VERY rough.)
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 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.

Muse Food – Footprints In The Sand
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I were wandering along a beach in Florida when we spotted these footprints in the sand.
The person wasn’t nearby. We don’t know who left these indents on the beach. And I doubt they realized their footprints would last long enough for someone else to see them.
But we all leave tracks, don’t we? We change the world around us merely by existing.
This is true for our characters also.
When Grin, a K model cyborg, met Adam, an all-powerful immortal being, in Grin And Bare Him, he set the deity’s expectation of who and what cyborgs are.
When Strive first meets Adam in Strive For Forever (releasing in July), he has to deal with that expectation. Grin had inadvertently impacted his relationship with the being inhabiting his female’s form.
We all leave footprints.

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.

Muse Food – Birds And Beings In The Sky
One of the (many) things I’m very conscious of when I write stories set on alien planets is…
There would be activity in the sky also.
Look at the Earth. There is SO much livable sky above us. And birds and butterflies and other lifeforms take advantage of that space.
These birds were spotted off a beach in Florida, USA.
And here is one of their buddies. (grins)
The space above an alien planet would likely be utilized also. If the planet was rich in resources, the skies would likely be quite crowded with lifeforms.

Grin And Bare Him
This cyborg will be the warrior his female requires.
Cyborgs are designed to fight. That is their primary purpose and 98.2356 percent of the manufactured warriors enjoy battle. Tremendously.
Grin, a K model, is one of the rare exceptions. When he escaped his cruel creators, he set down his sword and allocated his processors to less violent pursuits. He projects he’s left his war-waging planet rotations behind him forever.
Then he meets his beautiful, beguiling female, the one being he’s destined to protect, to claim, to love for all eternity, and his plans for peace are completely decimated.
Mohini needs a ship.
She has a dangerous mission to complete and the first step in that assignment is arranging transport to an enemy-controlled planet. The vessel she has set her sights on is guarded by the sexiest cyborg she’s ever seen.
To gain access to his ship, Mohini is prepared to kiss, caress, seduce the muscular male. The mission is her focus. The pleasure she experiences will merely be a bonus.
A female has to do what a female has to do to save the universe.
Grin And Bare Him is a Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
It features a humanoid female undertaking a dangerous mission, a cyborg intent on keeping her alive, and an enemy with enough firepower to blow up an entire sector.
