Cyborgs And the Seasons
It is Spring in my corner of the universe. Spring is one of my favorite seasons. Animals are having babies. The snow has melted, creating little streams of running water everywhere. (My home isn’t close to running water normally so this is a treat for me.) Tender shoots of grass and flowers are bursting from the ground. The birds sing happily every morning. It is a wonderful time to be alive.
In the depths of space, there aren’t, of course, any seasons. But on most of the planets the cyborgs and other warriors visit, there ARE seasons. We merely don’t see them change during the duration of a story.
In Holding Hoarse, locals were celebrating the harvest, which implies there’s a Fall/Autumn or Harvest season. Containing Malice was set during a barren, snowless Winter. The rock outcropping sporting the laboratory is stark and unwelcoming. Under Strain, the May release, is set during a rain forest-like Summer. The vegetation is lush. The ground is wet.
Cyborgs are manufactured to adapt to different conditions and they thrive in all seasons. I suspect they would enjoy the Spring here on Earth as much as I do. (smiles)

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.

Extras And Newsletter Snippets
On non-release months (like this month – grins), I often share updates on existing couples (or more) or backstory on upcoming characters (this month, that backstory snippet was about Power, Lethe and Eirene Ours) in my newsletters.
It is fun to revisit with characters and to ‘see’ scenes that are unlikely to make it into the stories.
Some reading buddies wanted these snippets to be available in Mobi/Kindle or ePub/Apple/Nook/Kobo format. I’m slowly, with the help of the Dear Wonderful Hubby, doing this. I’m working from present day backwards.
The links to all the snippets will be on my Extras page – http://cynthiasax.com/extras/ .
You need to sign up for my newsletter to get access to these snippets so they are still newsletter exclusive extras. Don’t worry. If you sign up multiple times under the same email address, you should only receive one copy of my newsletter.
Let me know if there are any issues! This is an experiment for me. I appreciate any feedback!

Why I Build Worlds
I wrote a post for Dragon’s Book Hoarde about why I tend to build worlds.
Here is a snippet…
“I get attached to people. I’ve known and loved Dragon for well over a decade (we won’t say how many years more – grins). I’ve worked with my cover artist on other projects long before I was a published writer. I consider readers to be part of my book family and I worry when I don’t hear from them.
This is no different for my characters. My characters are their own beings. It is sort of like the characters in our dreams. They might come from our brains but they do their own thing. I care for many of them…greatly. I also want them all to find their romantic happy ever afters…if that is possible (sometimes it isn’t possible).”

Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – March 21st
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!

The Mafia Squirrels
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
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.

Interviewed By Dragon’s Book Hoarde
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
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
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.

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.
