Cover Reveal For Needing Valor
This year’s thank you short story, my gift to you for being the best readers in the universe, is Needing Valor. It will release in December for free…which means there won’t be any pre-orders for it.
This 15,000 word (it would be about 60 pages in print) cyborg romance features Valor, Malice’s E Model buddy from Containing Malice.
I now have a cover for it! Woot! This cover was designed by the always Awesome Amanda Kelsey from Razzle Dazzle Design.

Baring Grudge
No one in the universe is more determined than a cyborg warrior tracking his female.
***
Grudge, a C Model cyborg, has been assigned a mission – safeguard a Humanoid Alliance space station for his kind. Honor was once all he had, and he is determined to fulfill his duty.
That resolve is tested when a tiny human female enters the space station and sets the prettiest little explosives the warrior has ever seen. She is Grudge’s genetic match, the one being manufactured for him. He wants to touch her, kiss her, claim her in all ways, but first he has to stop her from blasting him into the next galaxy.
Taelyn has a self-appointed mission—to destroy every battle robot the Humanoid Alliance has ever manufactured. A huge gray-skinned, blue-eyed cyborg warrior with mismatched arms won’t prevent her from achieving her goal. She’ll escape him, leaving destruction in her wake.
Before she departs, she’ll experience one toe-curling moment of hatred-edged passion with her handsome foe. She’ll show him how skilled with detonations she truly is. He will have his universe rocked.
Then she’ll disappear.
Her cyborg, however, has no intention of ever letting her go.
***
Baring Grudge is a STANDALONE Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
It features a determined, damaged warrior, an equally resolute human female, and an explosive game of predator and prey played across galaxies.
Baring Grudge is the third of five core stories in the Rebel Cyborgs Series.

Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – September 12th
Woot! I finished the first draft of Needing Valor, this year’s thank you short story (releasing in December). I think you’ll really enjoy this story. It was so much fun to write! And I absolutely love Valor and his female!
This week’s plan is to complete the second and third drafts and send it to my Awesome Editor. Then I will start thinking about Seizing Power, the fifth and final core story in the Rebel Cyborgs series (releasing in February).
Have a wonderful week, my friends. (big hugs) Read some new-to-you books. Take a few moments to watch the birds, whether they are pigeons strutting around the sidewalk, Canada geese flying in v formations overhead, or sparrows singing to you from a nearby tree. Nature is truly a gift. There is so much diversity, so much life. We are fortunate to be living on this beautiful planet.

Betrayed By My Eyeballs
I had to get reading glasses yesterday. Text was fuzzy. It was hard to focus on the words.
I was told by the optometrist this happens to most people over the age of 40 but I felt betrayed by my eyeballs. (grins) In the past, I could count on them. I could simply open my eyes and see. Now I need help to view text. It isn’t automatic.
Having faced the challenges of my changing eyesight, I can better relate to cyborgs whose parts don’t function as they were designed.
Strain whose processors are stuck on repeat, replaying the most horrific planet rotation of his life over and over. Grudge whose replacement arm and leg will never truly feel like his originals. B whose limbs creak whenever he moves.
These cyborgs have all be betrayed by their bodies yet they have learned to not only live with their unique issues but thrive with them.
I suspect I’ll reach that same stage also. (Tries to rub my eyes through the lenses.) Once I adjust to wearing these reading glasses. (laughs)

Baring Grudge And Quietly Doing Good
Taelyn, the heroine of Baring Grudge, has dedicated her lifespan to making the universe a better place.
A stranger wouldn’t know that when they first met her. She flings around f-bombs like they’re futuristic confetti. She growls and snaps at everyone. She keeps her charitable doings super quiet.
I know many people like her, people who give silently, who do good without broadcasting it. And that gives me hope.
Sure, the angry, awful people seem to get more than their fair share of media coverage. But there are many, MANY more people giving back, making the world a more wonderful, kinder place.
There are secret helpers all around us. Never forget that.

Baring Grudge And Learning To Fly
I’m a terrible driver. (I don’t pay attention to the road.) And I haven’t driven in decades but I do have my license. I did ‘unlock’ that achievement. (grins)
Because, here on Earth, learning to drive is often a teenage rite of passage. It is an event that signals increased independence. Once we can drive and we have access to a car, we can go almost anywhere.
In space, the equivalent is learning to fly a ship. In Baring Grudge, Taelyn, the heroine, teaches Jasny, her protégé. Taelyn believes she hasn’t many moments of living left and she wants the girl to both have that skill and associate learning that skill with her.
And for Jasny, the experience IS magical and it is transformative. We see her gaining confidence with every passing moment behind the controls. I love that!

Baring Grudge And Long-Distance Relationships
Grudge and Taelyn have a long-distance relationship for part of Baring Grudge. Grudge remains on the Humanoid Alliance space station. Taelyn returns to her adopted home planet.
They communicate constantly during this separation, learning a lot about each other, what they like, how they think. The distance forces them to put aside their all-consumingly hot physical attraction and focus on their intellectual attraction.
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I were long-distance early in our relationship. We were attending two different universities in two difference cities.
It was tough. I fully admit that. But we talked every day for hours and we uncovered so much about each other. That gave us a super solid base and when we finally were in the same city, we knew we could get through anything life threw at us.

Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – September 5th
I set Needing Valor, the December thank you short story, aside and spent the entire week with the Dear Wonderful Hubby. We didn’t do anything super exciting but we were together and that is always fun.
The Dear Wonderful Hubby makes me laugh and he seems to find me hilarious. (grins) He has a weakness for terrible jokes and I’m the master of those as you all know. Bad puns are my specialty.
This upcoming week, I’m returning to Needing Valor with fresh eyes. I expect it to be sent to my Awesome Editor by the 15th.
The next story on the schedule is Seizing Power. I am SO looking forward to that one! (rubs hands together with glee)
Enjoy this first Sunday in September and have a wonderful week, my friends. Take a few moments for yourself. Peruse the colorful back to school supplies either in store or online. Write a kind note to yourself using a favorite pen and the GOOD paper, part of the stash you’ve been saving for a special occasion. YOU are a special occasion. You deserve the best!

You Are A Warrior
Taelyn, the heroine of Baring Grudge, is a warrior. She might not fight beings on a battlefield but she does blow up the enemies’ space stations.
Medic Neidan, her guardian, is a warrior. She heals beings, doesn’t kill them but she is still bravely fighting her own battles against an often cruel and hurtful universe.
You are a warrior also. Right now, you might be fighting to ensure you and your loved ones are safe from the pandemic. You might be battling to keep a roof over your head or to get through the day or to carve out a bit of happiness in a rather dark world.
All that matters. You matter. (big hugs)
You can do this!

Splitting A Series
I receive questions from quite a few writing buddies and a handful of reading buddies around why I’ve split the cyborg world into subseries.
It wasn’t really a sell more books strategy.
Sure, when I split a series, there are more entry points for new-to-me readers and more permafree first in series opportunities (as well as BookBub possibilities).
But that is offset by some booksellers having systems that greatly favor long series. Apple, for example, sends new release information to anyone who has ever purchased a book in the same series. Every time I start a new series, I start at zero. That’s not very effective.
I split the series because that’s how I think as a writer.
I can’t hold 20 future stories in my brain. (grins) I can barely hold 1. And I find a super long series daunting. I like 5 core stories. That’s manageable. If I apply myself, I can write that in a year and a half or less.
I also split the series because that’s how I like to read.
I like the way Lisa Kleypas, for example, splits her huge historical world into 5 (on average) book series. I can read 5 books and have the satisfaction of reading an entire series. That’s extremely fulfilling.
Then I can wait for a bit to start the next series. Or I can skip a series if the premise for that overall series doesn’t appeal to me (that hasn’t happened yet with Lisa Kleypas’ historicals). Or I can (gasp) stop. Yes, there will be things I’ll never uncover but there should be a satisfying stopping point.
You, as a writer or a read, might have different preferences. And hey, that’s okay! Do whatever brings you joy. Happiness is precious. Protect it.

Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – August 29th
My Awesome Editor LOVES B Free, the fourth story in the Rebel Cyborgs series (releasing in November). We’ve completed a few rounds of editing and the story is now with my Awesome Formatter (the Dear Wonderful Hubby). I fully expect B Free to release on time and I really think you’ll enjoy it. (grins)
I’m still working on the first draft of Needing Valor, this year’s thank you short story (releasing in December likely on BookFunnel). I’m having my usual first chapter issues. (grins) That happens with every story but especially with the shorter ones. It is important that they start in the right place.
I’ll figure it out. I always do.

Baring Grudge
No one in the universe is more determined than a cyborg warrior tracking his female.
***
Grudge, a C Model cyborg, has been assigned a mission – safeguard a Humanoid Alliance space station for his kind. Honor was once all he had, and he is determined to fulfill his duty.
That resolve is tested when a tiny human female enters the space station and sets the prettiest little explosives the warrior has ever seen. She is Grudge’s genetic match, the one being manufactured for him. He wants to touch her, kiss her, claim her in all ways, but first he has to stop her from blasting him into the next galaxy.
Taelyn has a self-appointed mission—to destroy every battle robot the Humanoid Alliance has ever manufactured. A huge gray-skinned, blue-eyed cyborg warrior with mismatched arms won’t prevent her from achieving her goal. She’ll escape him, leaving destruction in her wake.
Before she departs, she’ll experience one toe-curling moment of hatred-edged passion with her handsome foe. She’ll show him how skilled with detonations she truly is. He will have his universe rocked.
Then she’ll disappear.
Her cyborg, however, has no intention of ever letting her go.
