Muse Food – Boats And Framing

By Cynthia Sax on June 25, 2024

I love this photo the Dear Wonderful Hubby took when we were visiting Panglao Island in the Philippines.

The focus is on the boats.

But the reason it is so beautiful to me is the framing of the much less interesting rocks and tree branches.

In every chapter, there’s usually one scene I’m super excited about writing.

I REALLY want to go straight to that scene and skip all the things that have to happen before that scene.

But I remind myself that those less gripping scenes are WHY the super exciting scene is so exciting. They are the reason that scene makes sense for reading buddies. They’re the reason that scene is impactful. They are the reason that scene is emotional.

They’re the rock framing the boats.

Drift Would

A cyborg and a spy fly into danger.

***

Drift is one of the best pilots in existence, and he has been assigned a perilous mission.

The G Model cyborg must fly to a distant planet, locate the sector-destroying superweapon the enemy is projected to be developing there, and obliterate that threat to the universe.

When Drift arrives at his destination and meets with an informant, he’s distracted by a mysterious human female seated in the shadows. She’s Drift’s genetic match, and she is the one being he’s destined to care for, claim, and protect.

She’s also a liar and a thief. And she might be working with the enemy.

Trusting her could kill him and everyone he cares about.

Liar. Thief. Seductress. Saboteur. Roshini has been called all of those things. And she has earned each label. She’s done some terrible things to safeguard the beings she loves.

A gray-eyed cyborg warrior with nimble hands and a shared need for speed won’t stop her high-risk activities.

She’ll sacrifice everything, including her lifespan, to complete her self-appointed top-secret assignment.

***


Drift Would is a standalone, enemies-to-lovers, Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.

It features a cyborg who loves to break speed records, a human spy with a talent for changing her appearance, and a foe intent on killing them both.

Muse Food – Fruit And Being The First

By Cynthia Sax on June 17, 2024

When the Dear Wonderful Hubby and I travel, we encounter many new-to-us edible fruits, vegetables and other foods.

We also encounter many new-to-us fruits and vegetation that would kill us or make us very ill if we consumed them.

And often, there isn’t much visible difference between the two groups.

So how did we, humans, figure out what we could eat or couldn’t eat?

Trial and error.

If the first person to eat the fruit or vegetation (or fish or animal or insect) died or became very ill, the rest of our ancestors knew not to consume it.

Yep, our current food system was built on that level of sacrifice.

I remember that when worldbuilding in my stories. A character wouldn’t arrive at a new-to-them place and know instinctively what was safe to eat or drink. They would have to be told or have a device that tested food and beverage or some other means of determining that.

Or they risk dying.

Muse Food – Beneath The Surface

By Cynthia Sax on June 10, 2024

The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I spotted this cute seal in Ketchikan, Alaska.

This seal is a reminder that anything could be beneath the surface of a creek or a lake or an ocean. There’s suspense when a character dives into the water. What will they find there?

As there is suspense, in SciFi Romance, when a character lowers their spaceship past a layer of cloud or mist or darkness.

We can’t see past those barriers. And that means ANYTHING could be hidden behind them.

Muse Food – Paths To Anywhere

By Cynthia Sax on June 3, 2024

A mysterious path almost always supercharges my muse.

Where is this path leading? Who would venture on it? Why would they take this unknown path? What or who might those heroes/heroines meet along their route?

Is there danger? Romance? Adventure? The possibilities are endless.

Muse Food – Horses And Cars

By Cynthia Sax on May 27, 2024

The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I spotted this horse and buggy tied to a light pole in a Walmart parking lot.

The contrast between this older mode of transportation and the surrounding cars was awesome.

One culture rejected additional technological ‘advances’, stopping at the horse and buggy stage, and the other culture continued to change as technology changed.

Neither decision was bad or good. It was merely different.

This can be a great way to build our worlds also. One world could have stopped ‘advancing’ at a certain point. Maybe they have cars but they don’t have spaceships. Or they have rejected computer-like devices. Or they have banned any material not naturally found on their planet.

The possibilities are only limited by our imaginations!

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.

Muse Food – The Weather In Your Scene

By Cynthia Sax on May 20, 2024

One of the easiest ways, I find, to set the tone of a scene is to describe the weather.

Turbulent weather prepares the reader for conflict and…well…turbulence. (grins) A sunny day is usually a happy peaceful loving day. A cloudy day hints at building conflict. A completely overcast dark day sets the scene for pain and sorrow and death.

What is the weather like in the scene you’re writing?

Muse Food – Cows In Space

By Cynthia Sax on May 13, 2024

The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I spotted this cow outside of Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic.

Bovines appear on various planets in my Cyborg World.

This is partially a joke. (grins) The thought of cows in space is funny to me.

But there is also a scientific reason for having cows on the planets.

Something has to eat the vegetation.

Everything needs a predator, something that will keep the population in check. That includes plants. Cows have evolved to be very good plant eaters.

Will the cows on alien planets look like cows?

They will likely have similarities (like a digestive system that can tolerate grasses and other plants) but they won’t look exactly like the cows we have here on Earth.

They will definitely be space cows.

Muse Food – Sweetgrass Baskets And Details To Include

By Cynthia Sax on May 6, 2024

The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I spotted this beautiful Sweetgrass Basket in a display in Charleston, South Carolina, USA.

The details on it are amazing and, if the basket was mentioned in one of my stories, those details would be ‘lost’. It would take too many words to describe the basket perfectly. And that description would distract readers from the core story.

My cyborg romances aren’t about baskets. (grins)

While writing, we have to choose the details we include carefully. Save the surplus details for blog posts and behind the scenes discussions.

Muse Food – Donkeys And The Unexpected

By Cynthia Sax on April 29, 2024

The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I were trekking along a beach in Grand Turk and we saw a herd of…

Donkeys.

It wasn’t a place we expected to see them. We were surprised and happy and it was a notable part of our day.

The unexpected can strengthen our stories also. An unexpected twist keeps the reader aware. They tend to pay more attention after that event. And the unexpected can be a talking point when readers discuss our stories.

Muse Food – Goats And Explaining The Impossible

By Cynthia Sax on April 22, 2024

The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I watched this goat calmly walk down a sheer wall of rock. We’ve seen similar goats descend perfectly intact brick walls.

Those feats seem impossible…to us, humans. Yet they occur.

There is an explanation for why goats need very little to stand on (their hoofs are the main reason).

Writers have to provide that explanation, preferably in as few words as possible, or readers won’t be happy with our stories. Everything has to be plausible or has be explained. Even the magic in fantasy novels is based on ‘logical’ systems.

That is part of the fun. (grins)
