Book Brain Time
Intrepid Encounter is due to my Awesome Editor by end of day September 1st (by the end of HER day – she’s West Coast and I am closer to the East Coast – that gives me a few extra hours – grins).
You all know what that means!
I’ll be making little to no fraggin’ sense on this blog until likely September 3rd. (laughs)
I already have book brain in a bad (and good) way. The Dear Wonderful Hubby is cooking our meals because neither of us trust me not to burn the house down right now. Yeah, the book brain is THAT intense.
Anyhoo…you have been warned! Chaos is to be expected! (cackles)

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.

Muse Food – Deer And The Unusual
A couple months ago (before the wildfires got really bad), the Dear Wonderful Hubby and I visited Victoria, BC.
We saw deer near the edge of a park. The deer were beautiful. We took photos and watched them for a long time.
People would pass us. They’d glance at the deer and continue walking.
I couldn’t believe they didn’t want to watch the deer.
We eventually continued on our trek. And we saw more deer.
And more deer. And more deer.
The deer were everywhere.
The locals didn’t stop and watch the deer because deer weren’t unusual for them. At all.
It was unusual for us because we’re visitors. We don’t often see deer.
I keep that in mind when I write scenes. A local might not comment on the purple trees on an alien planet, for example. A newcomer would comment on them.

Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – August 27
I’ve completed the first draft of Intrepid Encounter, the fifth core story in the Cyborg Unity series (releasing in November)! Woot!
Both Intrepid and his Valkyrie survived their story. (grins) They were dang close to not surviving a few times.
I’m now moving immediately into the second draft stage. The first draft might be the messiest first draft I have ever created. (shakes head) I have quite a bit of work to do.
After that, I’ll have the third draft to complete. Then it will be sent to my Awesome Editor for likely three more rounds of revisions/edits.
It is a long process but it ensures you receive the best story possible. You deserve that!
Have a wonderful week, my friends. (big hugs) The world is an uncertain place right now. Do some of the things you’ve always wanted to do. Yep, get working on that bucket list. When you get all those things done, you’ll have the opportunity to add MORE things to your bucket lists. That is a great challenge to have!

Alien Planets And Changing Seasons
I never show seasons changing on the alien planets we visit during the cyborg and alien stories.
There’s a simple reason for this.
The time frame of the story is usually short. (grins)
Here on Earth, we only have four true seasons – Fall/Autumn, Winter, Spring and Summer. An alien planet might not have that many. Seasons last much longer than the time frame of most stories.

Back To School Supplies
It is back to school time in my corner of the universe. This is one of my favorite times of the year.
I LOVE school supplies. I love cool new pens and awesome notebooks and fun erasers and groovy backpacks (the Dear Wonderful Hubby and I take backpacks with us when we travel). All of these supplies are in the spotlight now and some of them are on sale!
Many writing buddies also share this love.
If you’re looking for us, we might be in the back to school aisles! (grins)

Fighting A Seemingly Hopeless Fight
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I, after quite a bit of discussion, have decided to continue donating a portion of book sales to coral reef restoration.
I know. I know. Saving the coral reefs looks like an impossible task. The heat around Florida and in the Caribbean bleached and killed a scary number of reefs this year. Those included the coral reefs restored with ‘heat-resistant’ baby corals.
The odds of the coral reefs surviving are low.
But the odds aren’t zero! We aren’t giving up on these wonderful creatures. We’ll continue to help them battle for their survival.

Update On The Watermelon Patch
One of the Dear Wonderful Hubby’s dreams is to have his very own watermelon patch.
Watermelon is SUPER difficult to grow, especially in our part of the universe. Watermelon is a desert plant and our neighborhood is cool and damp especially this year.
But we currently have a watermelon on the vine! (The photo above is of a different one.) It is currently the size of a golf ball.
It is a Sugar Baby, one of the smaller round watermelons, and we’re hoping it will ripen before the cooler weather arrives.
The Dear Wonderful Hubby’s watermelon dreams are closer to coming true!

Muse Food – Tlingit Canoe And Decorating Important Objects
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I admired this Tlingit Canoe we spotted in Sitka, Alaska.
We’ve noticed that almost every culture decorates some versions of the objects important to them.
The Tlingit are people tied closely to the water. They decorated some of their canoes.
If people are farmers, they decorate some of the baskets used to gather crops from the fields.
Warrior groups decorate their swords. People in a dry climate decorate their water pots.
I think of this when I’m writing or reading about alien cultures. If an item is beautifully decorated, it usually has some significance to those beings.

Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – August 20
I continued to craft the first draft of Intrepid Encounter, the fifth core story in the Cyborg Unity series (releasing in November). I love Intrepid. I love the Valkyrie. I love that they are both trying to protect the beings they love and they believe that means defeating the other being. (grins)
Have a wonderful week, my friends. (big hugs) Eat a slice of your favorite fruit. Wear your softest or most comfortable piece of clothing. Re-read a much-loved book. Treat yourself. You’re doing great and you deserve that joy!

Woodstock 99: Peace, Love, and Rage
Spoiler Alert – This post will discuss the documentary Woodstock 99: Peace, Love, and Rage and might contain some information you haven’t yet uncovered about this event. You might wish to skip this post if you haven’t watched this documentary.
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I watched Woodstock 99: Peace, Love, and Rage, a documentary on, yes, you guessed it, the Woodstock 99 music festival. (grins)
One of the things I found interesting was how history had repeated.
The original Woodstock was as much of a sh*t show as Woodstock 99 was.
Literally.
Bathroom facilities weren’t sufficient at the festivals. Feces was everywhere.
And figuratively.
People died at the original Woodstock. There were a LOT of sexual assaults. The county it was held in declared a state of emergency. The Air Force had to transport performers to and from the site. They were dang close to calling in the National Guard.
The founders of Woodstock 99, like many Baby Boomers, had, unfortunately, romanticized the original Woodstock. They remembered only the best parts – the music, the feeling of togetherness, the freedom.
Which would have been fine.
Rewriting history is what humans tend to do. We curate our recollections.
Except it meant the founders didn’t correct the original festival’s mistakes. They were repeated.
Which is, again, what humans tend to do.
That is reality.
In the stories we read, we judge characters who repeat past mistakes harshly.
We expect them to learn and to change. Maybe the characters make different mistakes. But they never make the same mistake twice.
