Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – June 2
Drift Would, the second core story in the Dauntless Cyborgs series, has been loaded to booksellers and should be ready for its July release day. Knock on wood that’s true. (grins) Nothing is guaranteed in this wonderful life. We all do the best we can.
I’ve started sharing insider information about Drift Would here on this blog. That’s always exciting.
I’m continuing to craft the first draft of Claiming Cure, the third core story in the Dauntless Cyborgs series (releasing in November). This is another exciting story. I can’t wait for you to read it!
Have a wonderful week, my friends. (big hugs) Take a minute, tilt your head back and let the sun’s rays warm your sunscreen-covered face. Think about how far those rays have traveled to reach you. This universe is such an amazing place!

Drift Would
A cyborg and a spy fly into danger.
***
Drift is one of the best pilots in existence, and he has been assigned a perilous mission.
The G Model cyborg must fly to a distant planet, locate the sector-destroying superweapon the enemy is projected to be developing there, and obliterate that threat to the universe.
When Drift arrives at his destination and meets with an informant, he’s distracted by a mysterious human female seated in the shadows. She’s Drift’s genetic match, and she is the one being he’s destined to care for, claim, and protect.
She’s also a liar and a thief. And she might be working with the enemy.
Trusting her could kill him and everyone he cares about.
Liar. Thief. Seductress. Saboteur. Roshini has been called all of those things. And she has earned each label. She’s done some terrible things to safeguard the beings she loves.
A gray-eyed cyborg warrior with nimble hands and a shared need for speed won’t stop her high-risk activities.
She’ll sacrifice everything, including her lifespan, to complete her self-appointed top-secret assignment.
***
Drift Would is a standalone, enemies-to-lovers, Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.
It features a cyborg who loves to break speed records, a human spy with a talent for changing her appearance, and a foe intent on killing them both.

Drift Would And Drifting
Drift is the cyborg hero in Drift Would, the second core story in the Dauntless Cyborgs series (releasing in July). He’s a pilot and he chose Drift as his preferred name for a reason.
Drifting is, according to Merriam-Webster Dictionary, “the act or activity of steering an automobile so that it makes a controlled skid sideways through a turn with the front wheels pointed in a direction opposite to that of the turn.”
Spaceships don’t have wheels but drifting with a spaceship resembles drifting with a car. It is a sideways slide while turning and it requires finesse.
Drift definitely has finesse. (grins)

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
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.

The Creator
Spoiler Alert – This post will discuss the movie The Creator and might contain some mild spoilers. If you haven’t yet watched this wonderful human vs AI/robot movie, you might wish to skip this post.
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I watched The Creator, a SciFi movie featuring a war between humans and AI/robots and we absolutely LOVED it. It is from the director of Rogue One. Rogue One is our absolute favorite Star Wars movie thus far and The Creator definitely has that same feel to it.
One of the many things I loved about The Creator is…
How I could relate to the characters in it.
Specifically the robot child.
The robot children in other movies I’ve watched were…well…they didn’t truly act like children. I was aware when I watched them that they were robots.
In the Creator, the robot child, Alphie, had so many human quirks I forgot she was a robot. She ran like a kid runs. She had that lightning fast emotional recovery time children have. She looked at the world with a sense of wonder. She could be won over with a promise of ice cream. (smiles) She was ‘real’ to me.
And I think that’s key to great storytelling – the characters have to be real or relatable to viewers or readers. We need to know someone like them. We have to recognize at least some of their quirks in the people around us.
The Creator does a great job at doing this.
Note: This movie made me cry SO hard. It is definitely a three tissue watch.
