Gardening – Good Soil Rarely Just Happens
I was chatting with a neighbor and he was talking about how terrible his soil is and how he wishes he had good soil like we do.
He COULD easily have good soil like we do. He could have BETTER soil. He has more trees and that gives him more leaves to mulch with.
But he doesn’t use those leaves. He doesn’t spread them over the garden as mulch. Or create leaf mold with them. He bags the leaves and the city picks them up for THEIR composting program.
He doesn’t compost. And he doesn’t buy compost. None of that good stuff is sprinkled over his yard.
He certainly doesn’t get bags of used coffee grounds from the coffee shops and sprinkle THAT over his year.
He also bags his grass after he has cut it. He doesn’t leave it on the ground as free fertilizer.
His yard is extremely neat. But his soil sucks. And this is starting to impact his grass and other plants. They are being starved of nutrients and stressed. His soil also doesn’t hold much moisture. When the heat of the summer comes, the plants will likely die.
Good soil doesn’t take much work. It certainly takes less work than what he’s doing to keep his yard his version of tidy. But it doesn’t merely happen.

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 – Sweetgrass Baskets And Details To Include
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.

Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – May 5
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I spotted this adorable street kitten on one of our many travels. He was warming himself on the brick insert and his mom was close by.
The final files for Drift Would, the second core story in the Dauntless Cyborgs series (releasing in July), have been loaded to booksellers. Woot! We should be all ready to go for release day (knock on wood).
I’m crafting the first draft of Claiming Cure, the third core story in the Dauntless Cyborgs series (releasing in November). It is going as slowly as usual. (sheepish grin) But the words are being written and I already love this story.
Have a wonderful week, my friends. (tackle hugs) Enjoy the May flowers (April showers bring May flowers). Revel in the color, the scents, the delicate petals and the bees buzzing around them. This world is such an amazing place!

Happy Star Wars Day!
Happy Star Wars Day, my friends!
(tackle hugs)
May The 4th Be With You!
Rogue One is the favorite Star Wars work in the Sax household. The Dear Wonderful Hubby, especially, loves the premise of a group of rebels taking on a dangerous mission, knowing they’re doomed but doing it because it will save their world(s).
Of all the stories I’ve written thus far, Drift Would (releasing in July) has the greatest Rogue One vibes. Yes, it IS a romance. The romantic couple survives and gets their romantic happy ever after. But there is also sacrifice and bravery and a dangerous almost impossible mission and other Rogue One good stuff in it.
I can’t wait for you to read it!

Strike Zone – Missions Not Completed
At the beginning of Strike Zone, Strike, the cyborg hero, is given a mission.
He doesn’t complete it.
He makes progress on it. And he helps his female complete HER important mission. But he doesn’t finish his initial assignment.
And that’s okay. It doesn’t make him any less of a hero.
Sh*t happens. Changes occur. Life is fluid.
Strike processes there are millions of cyborgs who are ready, willing and eager to complete his mission.
There are also Drift and Cure, two not-so-eager cyborgs. (grins)

Throwback Thursday – Intrepid Encounter
The heroine of Intrepid Encounter is a VALKYRIE! (grins) Yes, she is one of those mythical warriors. And she IS very much a warrior. She is determined to retrieve a valued weapon of hers and seeks to punish the beings who took it.
Intrepid, the hero, is the captain of the Dauntless. The cyborg and his crew are assigned the nearly impossible task of stopping the Valkyrie…permanently.
This is a true enemies-to-lovers romance. It has fighting and loving and dangerous missions. All the good stuff. (laughs)

Intrepid Encounter
Cyborg vs. Valkyrie
Blood will be spilled and hearts will be captured.
Intrepid and his crew on the Dauntless guard the border to the cyborg sector. The D Model cyborg captain has dedicated his lifespan to protecting their homeland. He’ll do anything to secure the space and keep his brethren safe.
That includes confronting a Valkyrie intent on vengeance.
The female warrior is beautiful, brave, strong…and Intrepid’s genetic match. She’s the one being he is fated to claim. Her voice causes his circuits to hum. Her touch produces a passion he struggles to control.
But if he has to stop her…permanently…to protect his kind, he will make that sacrifice.
Olrun has been tracking the whereabouts of a one-of-a-kind object. The stolen item is critical to the safety of her Valkyrie sisters, and she’ll do anything to retrieve it.
That includes waging war on a tall, broad-shouldered cyborg warrior sporting brilliant-blue eyes and grimly set lips.
The male might…just might…have battle skills matching her own. And that excites the immortal fighter. She craves his rough handling, his punishing embrace, his stern words.
But Olrun’s desire for the cyborg won’t distract her from achieving her goal. She will shield her fellow Valkyries from danger, even if that means ending Intrepid’s lifespan in the process.
Intrepid Encounter is an enemies-to-lovers Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
It features a protective cyborg, a vengeful Valkyrie, and a destiny neither of them can predict.

Drift And Knocking On Wood
In the Sax Household, we knock on wood quite a bit.
We’ll say something like “We have a great life” and then we’ll immediately follow that with “Knock on wood” so we don’t curse ourselves and draw energy that changes our great life to a not-so-great life.
That response is steeped in superstition and not-at-all based on logic or science. But we do it anyway because…well…it doesn’t cost us more than a few words and why take the risk?
And who knows? Doing that might have saved Drift from his fate (or Fates – grins).
At the end of Strike Zone, the pilot cyborg celebrates not being assigned to a mission. As he’s doing that, he DOES get assigned to it.
Did his celebration draw that reversal?
Logic says it didn’t. Those are two unrelated actions.
But the superstitious part of me says he might have avoided that assignment if he had knocked on wood.

Almost Ready To Move The Gardening Outdoors
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I are watching the 14 day weather forecast. We’re looking for any risk of frost.
If we get the all clear by tomorrow, we will likely start moving the tomatoes, beans, peppers, squash and other seedlings outside.
Our last expected frost date is May 10th. We’re early. But that is to be expected with the climate changing.

Muse Food – Donkeys And The Unexpected
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.

Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – April 28
This black and white cat was sleeping in the middle of a busy (and dirty) sidewalk in Casablanca, Morocco. Everyone was careful to step around her. Every so often she would roll onto her back and allow someone to give her a few belly rubs.
(grins)
Cats are the same the world over, aren’t they?
Drift Would, the second core story in the Dauntless Cyborgs series (releasing in July), has been sent to my awesome formatter (the Dear Wonderful Hubby)! Woot! I love this story and I think you’ll enjoy it also.
I’m now focused on writing the first draft of Claiming Cure, the third core story in the Dauntless Cyborgs series (releasing in November). As always, this first draft will be completed slowly. (sheepish grin) I’m such a slow writer but hey, I get stories written. That is the only thing that truly counts!
Have a wonderful week, my friends. (big hugs) Rub a cat’s belly if you’re granted that honor. Feel the softness against your fingertips. And revel in the realization that you’re one of the rare chosen ones!

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.
