Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – March 21st

By Cynthia Sax on March 21, 2021

I found this image in stock photo and thought you might enjoy it. The pink water lily represents Truth’s pink-wearing Princess and the gray leaves symbolize Truth, a D Model cyborg with gray skin. It is one of those magical images we find every so often that are exactly right for the story.

I sent my newsletter this week! If you are subscribed and didn’t receive it, reach out to me and I’ll share it with you. It features a bit of Eirene Ours’ childhood and is a heart-warming slice of Ghost, Lethe and her life. They are such a happy little family. I hope reading it will give you joy.

I wrote more chapters in Baring Grudge, the third story in the Rebel Cyborgs series (releasing in August). Amanda, my awesome cover designer, has almost finalized the cover for this story. I can’t wait for you to see it! It is man titty delicious! (grins)

I hope to complete the first draft of Baring Grudge this week (knock on wood). That’s my big goal. There will be at least 2 more drafts before I send it to my Awesome Editor (for 3 more rounds of revisions/edits). But I always feel a bit better having the first draft done. As a wonderful editor once told me, she can help a writer fix a messy first draft. She can’t write that first draft.

Have a wonderful week, my friends! Send virtual hugs to loved ones. (big hugs) Read some great romance novels. Find beauty all around you. You are amazing. You are kind. You are loved. Never forget that!

Containing Malice

This tormented cyborg craves vengeance…and her.

***

Malice, a C Model cyborg, has spent his long lifespan enslaved by the Humanoid Alliance. His cruel manufacturers have hurt him in all the ways a male could be hurt.

His enemy has now added a new weapon to their arsenal—a tiny human medic with soft hands and a delectable scent. She experiments on him multiple times a shift, delivering pain…and frustration.

He wants her. He also seeks retribution.

Once Malice frees himself, he plans to achieve both of his goals, taking Medic Illona captive and ending her research…permanently.

Illona is as much a prisoner as the cyborgs she experiments on. Since her arrival at the Human Alliance’s secret laboratory, she has carefully, stealthily, crafted a plot to free her test subjects. To conceal her covert activities, the medic has been forced to harm beings rather than heal them.

The being she has damaged the most is also the cyborg she fiercely desires— Malice, a huge, gray-skinned, blue-eyed C Model with massive hands and a voice deeper than space. He hates her, has good reason to do so, and, when he’s freed, there’s a high probability he’ll kill her.

Illona will take that risk to ensure he survives.

***

Containing Malice is a STANDALONE enemies-to-lovers Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.

It is the first of five core stories in the Rebel Cyborgs Series.

Under Strain And Dinosaur Planets

By Cynthia Sax on March 19, 2021

Much of the action in Under Strain, the second Rebel Cyborgs story (releasing in May), occurs on Rohini 9, a dinosaur planet.

(grins)

You KNOW I couldn’t resist that type of setting for long. I’m proud of myself for waiting this many stories to visit a dinosaur planet. I LOVE dinosaurs, real or fictional. I’ve been on digs. I’m a Jurassic park/world fan. When I was a babysitter, I was a hit with many kids because I could talk dinosaurs with them.

Looking at this setting from a science point of view, there is no reason why there couldn’t be dinosaur planets. If there hadn’t been a triggering event here, Earth might still be a dinosaur planet.

The cyborgs, especially Grudge and Rancor, have an absolute blast with them. And I hope you’ll enjoy this planet also.

Under Strain

A damaged cyborg warrior is hunted by a peace-loving human female.

***

Strain is severely malfunctioning. The D Model cyborg was the sole survivor after a horrific decision was made by his cruel manufacturers. He hates all humans, and when he attacks one who is under his cyborg leader’s protection, he is reprimanded, stripped of his weapons, and told to watch and not actively participate in the next mission.

That mission takes place on a small remote planet. Its lush terrain should only be inhabited by the cyborgs they were sent to rescue, but Strain senses another presence on the surface. She is watching him, tracking him, hunting him.

A fully operational cyborg would end her lifespan.

Strain wants to claim her. Forever.

Kamyelle is the only one left of her kind. Warriors have killed the other nonviolent human inhabitants of her planet. She survived…barely…by hiding in the trees, observing her enemies, and covering herself with lifeform scan-concealing mud.

When a handsome, gray-skinned, brilliant-blue-eyed male arrives, surrounded by weapon-carrying warriors, she has to save him. Warriors harm and they kill. That is what they do.

She won’t allow them to hurt Strain.

***

Under Strain is a STANDALONE Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.

It features a broken warrior, a human female who thinks he’s perfect, and velociraptor-like dinosaurs who view them both as light, tasty snacks.

The Mafia Squirrels

By Cynthia Sax on March 15, 2021

I’ve shared a story about our backyard Mafia Squirrels on Dragon’s Book Hoarde.

Here is a snippet…

“In the Fall, the Mafia Squirrels hide the excess food on our exterior windowsills and in the barbeque and other places. If we touch it, we invoke their wrath. During the Winter, they hide their ill-gotten gains in the snow.

That creates a problem in the Spring (right now). The snow melts and birds can spot these treats from the sky. When the birds swoop down to eat the bounty on the ground, they also see the hoards on the windowsills.

This happens almost every year. And the scenario unfolds usually the same way.

It is total chaos, an all-out war between the birds and the Mafia Squirrels.”

Visiting With Past Characters

By Cynthia Sax on March 13, 2021

One of the (many) things I love about writing in the same world is, from time to time, we can visit with characters we’ve met in previous stories. This will happen often in the Rebel Cyborgs series.

The entire cyborg retrieval team made some appearances in the Cyborg Space Exploration series. Although at the time, we didn’t realize who they were or what their names were.

Ghost and Lethe, one of my favorite couples, make a brief appearance in Containing Malice. Their story was Ghost Of A Machine in the Cyborg Sizzle series. This couple will be referred to often due to their relationship with and influence on Cadet.

Power, the arrogant E Model hero of the fifth and final Rebel Cyborgs story, has made appearances throughout both previous series. His story will definitely feature some past couples.

Baring Grudge, which I’m writing at the moment, will include some characters from Chasing Mayhem. This third story in the Rebel Cyborgs series will be explosive. (grins)

Do you need to read these other stories to enjoy Rebel Cyborgs? No, not at all. The stories in Rebel Cyborgs can be read on their own. But I’m hoping these cameos will make some series reading buddies smile.

Redeeming Strain

By Cynthia Sax on March 12, 2021

The second story in the Rebel Cyborgs series is Under Strain (releasing in May). As soon as I ‘met’ Strain on page, when he tried to attack the heroine of Containing Malice, I was intrigued. I wanted to know why he was so hostile, why he hates humans with that intensity.

Strain is extremely damaged. He makes Malice look like he’s well adjusted. (smiles) He, of all the cyborgs, is the warrior Cadet believes is most like Ghost, another severely damage cyborg.

Cadet and Grudge and the rest of the cyborg retrieval team, however, believe in him. They see something special, something worthy in Strain.

There is a huge gap between being worthy of a team and being able to love and be loved. It will take a unique female to embrace Strain.

Kamyelle, the heroine of Under Strain, is certainly unique. (grins)

Interviewed By Dragon’s Book Hoarde

By Cynthia Sax on March 9, 2021

I’ve been interviewed on Dragon’s Book Hoarde!

I talk about writing during a pandemic, why I love cyborg romance and other things.

Here is a snippet…

” There were weeks where I couldn’t write. I was too worried, too stressed. I couldn’t concentrate. The Dear Wonderful Hubby’s youngest brother is a COVID Long Hauler, has been one since March 2020, and that is taking much of our focus.

The writing, once I have some mental bandwidth left, is an escape. I can venture into a world I can semi-control, a story where I know everything will eventually turn out okay. That is such a gift.”

Inspiration From Space

By Cynthia Sax on March 8, 2021

I have been LOVIN’ the recent influx of images from Mars and other ventures into space. The photos have been such a source of inspiration for me, for other SciFi Romance writers and for artists. The artwork that is being created is out of this world!

Often it is easier for me to write when I can better visualize the scenes. Artwork and photos allow me to do that. They sometimes also push me in a different direction, a direction I might not go without the images.

In addition to that, I’ve been using some of the artwork as backdrops for book promo material (I pay indirectly for use of the images). It gets me excited about writing and I hope it will excite you about reading the stories.

It is such a thrilling time for space lovers!

Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – March 7th

By Cynthia Sax on March 7, 2021

It is the first week of March. Spring is finally arriving in my corner of the universe. (knock on wood) And words on Baring Grudge, the August release, are flowing.

I love Grudge. I love his kick a$$ yet so very caring female. I eagerly open the manuscript every day, excited to see what they’ll do or say next. This story will be EXPLOSIVE. Grudge LOVES blowing things up and he gets to do what he loves in his story.

The next-to-final version of Under Strain has been loaded to booksellers. I still have to add the excerpt to Baring Grudge and buy links once I receive the cover.

This upcoming week will be more of the same. Fresh words on Baring Grudge will be written. I will likely re-read Under Strain, find a typo and while correcting that typo, I will add 3 more, much to the horror of my Awesome Editor. (grins) That’s how I seem to work.

Have a wonderful week, my friends. Be kind to yourselves. Stay as safe as you can. Love hard and often. The ability to spread caring and kindness is a gift. Enjoy it.

Under Strain Finalized

By Cynthia Sax on March 5, 2021

Under Strain, the second standalone story in the Rebel Cyborgs series (releasing in May), has been finalized and loaded to booksellers. Yay!

I LOVE this story. Strain is very much broken and I have a weakness for damaged warriors.

His female is exactly who he needs. Not to fully function because I don’t think that will ever be possible for him, but she shows him how to enjoy life. She allows him to experience happiness and love again.

Strain is severely malfunctioning. The D Model cyborg was the sole survivor after a horrific decision was made by his cruel manufacturers. He hates all humans, and when he attacks one who is under his cyborg leader’s protection, he is reprimanded, stripped of his weapons, and told to watch and not actively participate in the next mission.

A fully operational cyborg would end her lifespan.

Strain wants to claim her. Forever.

Kamyelle is the only one left of her kind. Warriors have killed the other nonviolent human inhabitants of her planet. She survived…barely…by hiding in the trees, observing her enemies, and covering herself with lifeform scan-concealing mud.

When a handsome, gray-skinned, brilliant-blue-eyed male arrives, surrounded by weapon-carrying warriors, she has to save him. Warriors harm and they kill. That is what they do.

She won’t allow them to hurt Strain.

***

Under Strain is a STANDALONE Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.

It features a broken warrior, a human female who thinks he’s perfect, and velociraptor-like dinosaurs who view them both as light, tasty snacks.
