The End Of June

By Cynthia Sax on June 30, 2021

June wasn’t my most productive month on record. (grins) But hey, that’s okay. We’re allowed to take time off. Humans NEED time off. Especially since we’re at the end (knock on wood) of a world-wide pandemic.

The highlight of June for me was my Awesome Mom, my Dear Wonderful Hubby, and myself all getting our second vaccinations. I feel such relief, such joy knowing some of the people I love have that extra layer of protection.

I have also almost completed the first draft of B Free (releasing in November) and I love it so very much. This story was a battle to write but, as I’ve mentioned in the past, those are often the best stories and B Free is proving to be no exception to that guideline.

How was your June? Did you discover any new-to-you writers and series this month? What was the highlight for you?

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.

Bonus Scenes (Extras)

By Cynthia Sax on June 29, 2021

Every non-release month I usually craft a never-before-seen, exclusive-to-subscribers, bonus scene for my newsletter (the scene this month featured Truth, Princess Nancy and a mock battle between the crew of the Reckless and Vengeance’s best warriors).

If you’ve missed past scenes, they’re (eventually) listed on the Extras page on my website – http://cynthiasax.com/extras/ .

You will be asked to sign up for my newsletter before downloading each bonus scene. Don’t worry! The system is intelligent (that sounds like a cyborg thing to say – grins). If you download multiple scenes, it will only sign you up once. If you’re already signed up for my newsletter, it won’t sign you up again.

Do you need to read these scenes to understand what is happening in the stories? No, not at all. They are bonus scenes, an insider’s view of the cyborg world. Anything important imparted in them will be mentioned again in the relevant story.

Cyborgs, The Future And Diversity

By Cynthia Sax on June 28, 2021

There has been a lot of talk in Romancelandia about diversity of characters.

Most of my stories feature the M/F relationship construct. I love writing those stories. As many of my writing buddies are happily writing M/M. M/M/M/F, F/F and other relationships constructs, I don’t feel a driving need to write them. I simply read their stories. (grins)

The cyborg world IS diverse, however. There are all sorts of relationship constructs in existence all around my characters. There are human and humanoid males on Mercury Minor waiting to meet their male cyborg warriors. There are human and humanoid females waiting to meet their multiple male cyborg warriors. There are multigender and fluid gender and other beings also waiting.

When it comes to race and culture, well…the cyborg world encompasses the entire universe. There are blue beings from low technology civilizations and multicolor beings from advanced technology civilizations. The humans and humanoids and other beings in the universe are extremely varied. I think that is part of the fun of writing cyborg and alien romance.

Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – June 27th

By Cynthia Sax on June 27, 2021

My Awesome Formatter (the Dear Wonderful Hubby) completed the formatting for Baring Grudge, the third Rebel Cyborgs story (releasing in August). I’m reading it over one more time today and then hope to load it to booksellers.

Baring Grudge will still release in August because I need the next story written before a current story releases or my muse goes on strike. I get all wound up and the words stop flowing. B Free, the fourth story, remains a battle (literally and figuratively), which excites me because those tend to be my favorite stories (eventually – I hate it a bit at the moment – grins).

I sent out my newsletter this week. It had a bonus scene with Truth, Princess Nancy, Astrid and a mock battle on the Homeland. If you didn’t receive it, let me know!

I’ll be focused this upcoming week on writing B Free. I’m interested in seeing where this story is going. B and his female are great together and things are happening (all powerful, all knowing things – grins).

Have a wonderful day, my friends, and an awesome week! Stay cool if you’re in the midst of hot weather (I hear North America’s West is a bit steamy right now) and warm if you’re in the midst of cooler weather (I understand some of my friends in Australia are experiencing a dip in temperatures). I love you! Be safe!

Cyborgs And Earth

By Cynthia Sax on June 23, 2021

A reading buddy asked me if there will ever be a cyborg story set on Earth.

That COULD happen. I never say never. Whenever I do that, I’m usually presented with a story idea the very next day. (laughs)

But the probability is low.

Why?

Because the cyborgs were manufactured to fight the Humanoid Alliance’s (i.e. the humans’) wars against mostly non-human species. The majority of beings on Earth are humans.

And because most of the cyborgs were stationed far away from Earth. The Humanoid Alliance benefited from the physical distance between the less loyal humans (i.e. those not in deep with the Humanoid Alliance) and the cyborgs. The less beings knew about cyborgs, the less likely they were to figure out cyborgs are living, feeling beings, not emotionless weapons of war.

The Humanoid Alliance wanted to separate the majority of humans from the majority of cyborgs. The cyborgs would need a strong incentive to bridge that distance.

Cyborgs And Cleaning Cloths

By Cynthia Sax on June 22, 2021

In the cyborg world, the main method of cleaning skin and bodies is by using cleaning cloths.

Cleaning cloths are NOT wipes. (grins) They aren’t the little pieces of material some of us have been using to sanitize our hands during the pandemic. Those wouldn’t be effective at all for larger clean ups and for everyday use.

A few years ago, in the Before Times, I attended the Consumer Electronics Show in Vegas and met a scientist/inventor. He was looking for funding for a project he was working on.

That project was a liquid-less fabric that could clean bodies, other fabrics, other surfaces. The technology it utilized was similar to electronic charges. The cleaning fabric was ‘recharged’ in a little machine.

He claimed his cleaning fabric was more effective than soap and water.

Cleaning cloths are an evolution of that idea. They are much more advanced and more effective than the demo cleaning fabric I saw.

You might be wondering…

Why don’t the cyborgs use water to clean themselves?

Water is more valuable than sunstones in the universe. Heck, I suspect in 300 years, drinkable water will be more valuable than diamonds right here on Earth.

The number of planets supplying water to the ever-increasing populations of humans and humanoids are few. Water can’t be squandered on cleaning beings or clothing or things. It has to be reserved for drinking.

So beings, being inventive, devised another solution – cleaning cloths. Cleaning cloths are portable, effective, can be used pretty much forever, and don’t require liquids.

Lucifer And Having Fun

By Cynthia Sax on June 21, 2021

I talked the Dear Wonderful Hubby into watching the first few episodes of Lucifer (available on Netflix in my corner of the universe) and he is now addicted to the TV show (which is based on characters crafted by Neil Gaiman). We’re watching it from the beginning.

There are a number of reasons why I love Lucifer. Tom Ellis, who plays Lucifer, is super hot. (grins) I also find D.B. Woodside, who plays Amenadiel, extremely attractive. There’s tremendous girl power in the show. The female characters often have bonding and supportive moments. There are demons and angels and, of course, the devil. I really enjoy the casually delivered quips and insults. They make me laugh.

But, most of all, I love how the cast always seems to be having fun. They have glints in their eyes when they are on screen, like they’re sharing a private joke. I feel the joy, the love in even the darkest episodes.

Joy is important for writers also. I think readers can feel when a writer is having fun, is loving a story. When I re-read a story, sometimes for the fifteenth time, I note if it makes me smile.

If the story makes me smile, I hope it will make you smile.

Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – June 20th

By Cynthia Sax on June 20, 2021

Welcome to the new reading buddies who found me via the Dark Thoughts promo. (tackle hugs) If you have any questions, need a terrible pun or want to chat, my email is on the right sidebar. I’m always happy to hear from you!

I completed final edits for Baring Grudge, the third Rebel Cyborgs story (releasing in August), this week and have sent it to my fabulous formatter (the Dear Wonderful Hubby). He started a brand new job this week so it might take some time before he sends it back to me for final proofs.

I’m still zipping along on B Free, the fourth Rebel Cyborgs story (releasing in November). My target date to send it to my Awesome Editor is July 31st.

Have a great day, my friends, and a terrific week! Read great books. Eat delicious food. Look up at the stars now and then. Embrace this marvelous life!

Going On Adventures

By Cynthia Sax on June 19, 2021

Whenever the Dear Wonderful Hubby and I are faced with anything new, we tell each other we’re going on an adventure.

Adventures rarely go smoothly. There is danger and peril and struggles to overcome or endure. But there is also wonder and joy and beauty and, when I’m with the Dear Wonderful Hubby, laughs (usually during inappropriate times – grins).

We don’t know what is waiting for us around the next bend…and that is part of the fun.

It is also a reminder that trials are temporary. We’ll get out of that quicksand, save ourselves from the boa constrictor, escape the big baddies.

And the best of things, treasures can be merely a few steps away. That treasure, itself, is a mystery. It could be a double rainbow, a hug from a good friend, a slice of tasty fruit. We don’t yet know. It is all very exciting!

Have you gone on an adventure recently?

Cover Reveal For B Free

By Cynthia Sax on June 18, 2021

Woot! I have a cover for B Free, the fourth Rebel Cyborgs story (releasing in November).

This cover was designed by the always awesome Amanda Kelsey from Razzle Dazzle Design and I believe it captures the story’s primitive B Model hero perfectly!

I also crafted a rough preliminary blurb for the story (as a placeholder until I craft the final one).

B Free

B is the last remaining B Model cyborg. All of his brethren, the beings he trained with, fought with, cared deeply for, have perished.

Or so he believes.

When he intercepts a communication mentioning the existence of one of his kind, he has to investigate the source. The message could be a trap set by his enemies. He’ll take that risk if it secures him the companionship he requires to be fully functional.

What he finds is a daring human female who activates all his systems. She proudly proclaims she’s a historian, brandishing that information like a weapon before her. He wants to kiss the sass off her beautiful face, protect her from the dangers around them, claim her forever.

Quinn is on a quest to locate the mechanics of an early version cyborg. She believes the information captured within that frame will give her valuable insights into the past.

When her mission goes zombie-like beings levels of wrong, she comes face-to-face with a living, breathing B Model. He has big hands, a primitive countenance, and stern hard lips crafted for kissing.

She doesn’t trust him. He might be working for her competitor. Historians can be a tricksy bunch. And she doesn’t have time to indulge her desires.

Their shared enemy wants their precious specimens back and they’re willing to kill to retrieve them. One minor mistake could reduce B and Quinn to a mere line in the databases of history.

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.
