Planning Series As A Pantser
I’m a pantser. I write by the seat of my pants, not having a plot before I sit down at my keyboard. I normally know the first scene of a story and perhaps a bit about that first point of view character (the hero or the heroine) and that’s it.
Which makes planning a series challenging. (laughs)
In the case of Cyborg Unity, it was a little easier because we ‘meet’ Odium’s heroine in Seizing Power. She’s the freighter captain who calls for help.
I didn’t know anything else about her at the time. And I had no idea who the next four stories were about.
I needed titles and covers for these stories, however. My cover artist requires a long lead time. I like to list all the stories in a series in the description for that first story.
So I jotted down the names of the cyborgs who hadn’t yet found their matches. And I allowed my heart to decide.
Grin, Raw, Strive, Intrepid called to me. Those heroes felt…right. I didn’t know why at the time.
But as I think about story 2 – Grin And Bare Him – I realize I couldn’t have written anyone else’s stories.
That, my friends, is storytelling magic and I’m constantly in awe of it. The muse always knows.

Seizing Power
This cyborg believes he’s in control.
Power is the self-appointed leader of the cyborg council. Other members might debate situations. He makes the ultimate decisions.
When a threat to Homeland is revealed, he takes command of a fleet and ventures to the edge of cyborg-controlled space to investigate. He finds a rebellion led by a mysterious upstart he calls Cadet.
The plan Power derives is simple—he’ll quickly quash the uprising and teach its leader a lesson the warrior will never forget.
NO ONE challenges his authority.
Eirene Ours might be called a cadet by Power but she is NOT his subordinate. She is the arrogant E Model’s genetic match.
For much of her mature lifespan, she has desired the male, yearning for his dark-eyed gaze, craving his sure hands, longing for his respect.
That esteem was never granted. And Eirene Ours can no longer wait to earn it. There’s an external threat to their kind, a danger that might destroy them all.
Having lured Power to her home terrain, she now plans to use everything within her means — her fists, her daggers, her ship-destroying missiles — to pound that truth into her stubborn warrior’s thick metal skull.
The future of every cyborg is at stake. She can’t fail them.
Power will believe her. Or he will die.
***
Seizing Power is an enemies-to-lovers Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
It features an epic battle between two equally strong cyborg leaders, plans that go terribly yet passionately wrong, and a love that will shake the entire universe.

A Very Long Commute
I was joking with the Dear Wonderful Hubby that Power and Eirene Ours have a VERY long commute.
At the end of Seizing Power, they’ve agreed to split their time between the Homeland and Mercury Minor, two planets within the same sector yet situated many planet rotations (days) apart distance-wise.
Is this commute feasible?
Sure. They have systems and beings in place. They could manage their planets from a ship if they wanted to do that.
But, of course, it is easier to know what is truly happening in a place if they are physically there. And they have loved ones on both Mercury Minor and the Homeland.
It remains a long commute, however. (grins)

Van Gogh Nature Inspired Garments
The Dear Wonderful Hubby snapped some photos of some Van Gogh inspired outfits we saw at the Original Immersive Van Gogh Exhibit at The Shops at Crystals in Vegas.
I could envision some future heroines, especially from agri-lots, wearing garments like these for special events.
When I think Van Gogh, I often think sunflowers. A heroine bedecked in fresh flowers local to her planet would draw everyone’s gaze.
This outfit is definitely a celebration of the harvest.
This headpiece is another celebration of the harvest. This would be perfect for shorter heroines who wish to look taller than they truly are. (grins)
This feathered dress is very otherworldly. I could envision a shapeshifter wearing it.

Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – April 3rd
I made the deadline! Woot! Provoking Odium, the first cyborg romance in the new Cyborg Unity series (releasing in June), has been sent to my Awesome Editor! I’m super happy with this story. I think you’ll really enjoy it.
There will be at least three rounds of edits on Provoking Odium. I pushed the storytelling in a few places and those scenes will likely need serious tweaking. (grins)
This upcoming week will be spent thinking about the next story…which will, I believe, be the second story in the series. We meet the heroine in Provoking Odium and she isn’t letting me put her story on pause. She has a mission and she wants to complete it. The future of her kind depends on this.
Have a great week, my friends. (big hugs) Escape into a fictional world for a bit. Be someone else for a few moments. Go on grand book adventures and experience all types of love. I want that for you so very much. (more hugs)

Are We What We Write?
I’ve been experiencing a particular type of (sometimes extremely entertaining – grins) situation more and more online.
I will talk about climate change on social media and someone will point to the explosions in my books and tell me those explosions contribute to climate change. I will talk about domestic violence on social media and someone will point to the violence in my books, call me a hypocrite.
I could talk about how those explosions aren’t happening here on Earth. Or that maybe climate change is fixed in the future.
But the most important thing is…
I’m not the books I write.
I might have things in common with the heroes or heroines. But they aren’t me. And I don’t approve of or like everything that happens in my stories.
For example, I don’t like conflict in my non-writing life. At all.
A well-written Romance Novel, in contrast, usually requires all sorts of conflict. A no conflict Romance Novel would be VERY short. (laughs) The couple (or more) would exchange ‘I love you’s on the first page and that would be it. They’d have their Romantic Happy Ever After. The story would be over. To craft a longer, more thrilling story, we NEED conflict.
In the Sax household, as another example, we try not to intentionally kill anything. Spiders live in our basement over the winter and we take them outside in the spring. I have a plant on the windowsill that has been dead for months and I water it weekly, hoping it will miraculously return to life.
In my stories, in contrast, beings die. All sorts of beings. Good, bad, other. The stories are set during war. It would be very unusual not to have any deaths during a war.
And my life is very boring compared to the lives of the beings in my stories. You do NOT want my stories to reflect my life. It would be 200 pages of someone sitting in front of a computer screen in her daytime pajamas.
Writers are not usually what they write. And you don’t want our stories to be a reflection of who we are and what we do. There’s a reason there aren’t many (or any that I know about) reality shows based on writers. We’re quite boring. (grins)

April Fools’ Day Or Poisson D’Avril
I won’t be online much today as it is April Fools’ Day, a day when people try to trick others. I’m MUCH too trusting and I usually believe them. (sheepish grin) So I tend to avoid people on this day.
I spent a bit of my childhood in a French Canadian town and I much prefer the French Canadian April 1st tradition. The day is called Poisson D’Avril.
Poisson means fish in French and it usually involves a fish in some way. Some people stick a paper fish on unsuspecting folks’ backs. If there’s a prank or any other foolery, there is a fish involved. It is fun to spot the fish references and we trusting folks know if a fish isn’t present, it isn’t a trick.
Have fun today, my friends!

The Price Of Leadership
One of my buddies was telling me every time she leaves the house wearing a mask, someone says something nasty to her.
That, unfortunately, is the price of leadership. Of being different. (And yes, being different is a type of leadership. Every leader starts with only one follower – themselves.)
A leader is out front. They’re separated a bit from the crowd. They draw attention. And not all that attention is positive. Leaders can become targets of insecure, unwell beings.
Eirene Ours and Power, the heroine and hero of Seizing Power, know this. Power embraces the hate. (eye roll) Eirene Ours tries to win over her haters. But they realize they will always face this type of negative energy.
That doesn’t stop them. And it shouldn’t stop you. (big hugs) Keep safe, my friends!

Everyone Is A Little Bit Damaged
Some buddies have asked me why so many of the beings in the cyborg series have tragic pasts and unhealed trauma.
In Seizing Power, Lethe, Eirene Ours’ mom, shares why this is true for the cyborgs.
***
“They’re all damaged, Daughter.” Her mom gently smiled at her. “The Humanoid Alliance tortured them in every way a being could be tortured. For hundreds, thousands of human lifespans. Your warrior didn’t escape that fate.”
***
But this doesn’t merely apply to the cyborgs. The Humanoid Alliance have been waging a universe-wide war. Humans and humanoids have endured battle, hardship, death. That changes beings.
As the pandemic has changed us here on Earth.
The beings in the cyborg world need time and love and acceptance to help them heal. We’ll need that also.
Be kind to yourself. (big hugs) You’re facing (or have faced) epic challenges and you’re doing awesomely!

Haus Of Gaga – The Meat Dress
No visit to the Haus of Gaga: Las Vegas exhibition (found in the Park MGM Casino in Vegas) is complete without a viewing of Lady Gaga’s infamous Meat Dress (and shoes and hat), the Franc Fernandez ensemble she wore to 2010 Video Music Awards.
This dress has since been cured into meat jerky and painted red because, of course, preserved meat is normally brown.
The Meat Dress
The Meat Hat
The Meat Boots
I could definitely envision a bada$$ (And bad. Period.) futuristic female warrior wearing the remnants of her kills.

Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – March 27th
I’m finishing the second draft of Provoking Odium, the first standalone cyborg romance in the new Cyborg Unity series (releasing in June). I love this story. I think you’ll love it also.
This week, I’m completing a fast third draft. I’ll definitely have book brain so my blog posts might be a bit unconventional. (grins) And I will likely be slow with returning messages. I like to keep the entire story in my head during second and third drafts and that doesn’t leave room for much else. (laughs)
Have a wonderful week, my friends. (big hugs) Enjoy these last days of March 2022. Gaze at a tree and imagine where its roots are traveling. Listen to the birds chirp. Eat a fresh berry or fruit or some other treat. Embrace this awesome world of ours!

That esteem was never granted. And Eirene Ours can no longer wait to earn it. There’s an external threat to their kind, a danger that might destroy them all.
Having lured Power to her home terrain, she now plans to use everything within her means — her fists, her daggers, her ship-destroying missiles — to pound that truth into her stubborn warrior’s thick metal skull.
The future of every cyborg is at stake. She can’t fail them.
Power will believe her. Or he will die.

Seizing Power is an enemies-to-lovers Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
It features an epic battle between two equally strong cyborg leaders, plans that go terribly yet passionately wrong, and a love that will shake the entire universe.
