My eBooks Are Available On Kobo Plus!
All of my cyborg and alien romances (and most of my contemporary romances) are now available through Kobo Plus, Kobo’s subscription service! Woot!
That means, if you have Kobo Plus, you can read all those stories at no additional cost.
One of the things I love about Kobo Plus is it doesn’t demand exclusivity. My eBooks can still be available everywhere else, including public libraries (librarians will usually order my eBooks if you ask them to do that).
Kindle Unlimited, in contrast, demands exclusivity. I couldn’t work with libraries or Apple or Kobo or other booksellers. That’s why my eBooks aren’t, as of now, enrolled in that program. I will ALWAYS support libraries.

Raw Desires
His human female is attempting to kill him.
This cyborg finds that adorable.
Raw, a K model cyborg, is one of the lucky warriors who has located his genetic match. He hears his human female’s voice over the communication lines and immediately processes she is his.
Winning her affections will be a greater challenge. Battle has always been Raw’s focus. The rough-and-tough warrior has no idea how to engage anyone’s tender emotions.
Fortunately, he isn’t alone in the universe. His unmatched male friends help him craft a plan.
All Raw has to do is relay a few unsettlingly sweet words to his female and give her the thoroughly unfunctional wall decoration he has obtained. He projects she will then jump into his big, strong arms and beg him to claim her.
Taytu isn’t jumping anywhere. She has one mission—kill every cyborg in existence.
The huge, handsome male traveling to meet with her is her first target. His rough hands, firm lips, and sparkling, energy-infused eyes won’t save him from her vengeance. She has trained vigorously for this moment, and she won’t fail at her assigned task.
The cyborg will die.
Raw Desires is an enemies-to-lovers Cyborg SciFi Romance set in a dark, gritty, sometimes-violent universe.

Genetic Matches As A Friend Group
Grin, Raw and Strive, the heroes or Bare And Grin Him, Raw Desires and Strive For Forever (releasing in July), are best friends.
Does that mean their genetic matches will be friends?
Not necessarily. But it does increase the odd of that happening (which is EXACTLY what happens). The same aspects their cyborgs love in their females might result in them liking each other. And they have a huge thing in common – they all love cyborgs. (grins)

Muse Food – Footprints In The Sand
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I were wandering along a beach in Florida when we spotted these footprints in the sand.
The person wasn’t nearby. We don’t know who left these indents on the beach. And I doubt they realized their footprints would last long enough for someone else to see them.
But we all leave tracks, don’t we? We change the world around us merely by existing.
This is true for our characters also.
When Grin, a K model cyborg, met Adam, an all-powerful immortal being, in Grin And Bare Him, he set the deity’s expectation of who and what cyborgs are.
When Strive first meets Adam in Strive For Forever (releasing in July), he has to deal with that expectation. Grin had inadvertently impacted his relationship with the being inhabiting his female’s form.
We all leave footprints.

Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – May 7
I sent the submission draft of Strive For Forever, the fourth core story in the Cyborg Unity series (releasing in July), to my Awesome Editor on Sunday. Woot! I hope she loves it. (I can’t judge my own writing.)
Then I slept like the dead for almost the entire week. (grins) I also completed some dreaded administrative tasks. And I spent time with the Dear Wonderful Hubby. Plus puttered around the garden.
I’m almost ready to start writing Intrepid Encounter, the fifth and final core story in the Cyborg Unity series. (The next series will likely feature the next generation of cyborgs. YES!) I love Intrepid (We first met him in Releasing Rage.) And I’m excited he’ll be finding his genetic match.
Have a wonderful week, my friends! (tackle hugs) Try a new-to-you food. Ask a loved one about one of their favorite topics and watch them light up as they talk about it. Let their excitement feed yours. Learn a new fun and not-at-all-practical fact this week. (grins)

Writing Vs Publishing That Writing
Before delving into this topic, I would like to share that, thanks to reading buddies who pre-order my stories, I consistently cover my publishing costs long before a story is released. T
That removes a major worry for me (and almost all writers). It also gives me an awesome emotional push to start and complete the next story!
You all ROCK!
***
The question ‘Would you still write if you weren’t earning income from it?’ regularly makes the rounds on social media.
It is often asked by a writer who is struggling with low or no sales. (Big hugs to them – I’ve been there, my friends.)
It is important to know that writing and publishing that writing are two VERY different things.
Writing can be a hobby. We can do it merely for funsies.
Publishing is almost always a business. As a business, publishing a book has a cost component.
Unless we have money to donate to publishing, we HAVE to make sales from it to cover these costs.
That is an unfortunate requirement.
Writers can, however, continue to write if we don’t earn income from it. Readers just wouldn’t have access to that writing. (Because publishing a story for free still has a cost component to it.)
So…most writers will continue to write even if we don’t earn money from that writing. It is dang hard to deny the muse. (grins) And writing brings many of us tremendous joy.
But we are unlikely to publish that writing. To do that, we have to, at least, cover our costs because…well…we like to eat.

Planet Names
I often use existing planet names for the names of planets in my cyborg romances.
I do this because…well…this information doesn’t get much attention. Many of us, myself included, know the planets in our solar system and that’s it. We don’t realize there are thousands of other named-by-humans planets in our universe. Heck, we are naming planets all the time and very few media outlets cover these amazing developments!
So I use existing planet names, knowing some of my reading buddies will likely do a search on them and uncover their fascinating backgrounds. (smiles)

Transferring The Seedlings
According to the 14 day forecast, the fear of frost appears to be gone in our corner of the universe. Climate change is advancing the seasons significantly.
The Dear Wonderful Hubby wants to transfer the tomato seedlings from our basement grow station to the backyard garden.
I’m a bit nervous to do this now. Forecasts have been wrong in the past. Our usual last frost date is a week to two weeks away.
So we’re hedging our bets and only transferring a few of the seedlings. (grins) We will still have plenty more if those don’t make it. And this frees up a bit of space in the grow station.

Cynthia Sax Is Sleeping (Grins)
I sent Strive For Forever, the fourth core story in the Cyborg Unity series (releasing in July) to my Awesome Editor late, late Sunday night/Monday morning.
I slept most of the day yesterday. It was glorious.
And I plan to sleep most of the day today. By the time you read this post, I’ll likely be in my sweet loving bed, dreaming of cyborgs and sassy females and exploding planets.

Muse Food – Portholes
In my stories, my characters refer to windows as portholes.
(This porthole was spotted in the Steampunk exhibit on the Norwegian Getaway.)
Spaceship terminology is often based on sailing ship terminology. And sailing ships had portholes, round highly secured waterproof windows.
The portholes in the cyborg world aren’t all round. That is often an impractical shape especially for planet-based structures.
But I DO often think of them as being round. (grins)

Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – April 30
Strive For Forever, the fourth core story in the Cyborg Unity series, is due to my Awesome Editor by end of my day today! I’ll be re-reading it a gazillion times today, ensuring everything flows and makes sense and likely adding some more unnecessary commas. (grins)
Tomorrow, I will sleep the sleep of the dead. I plan to sleep all week. Especially as I likely won’t get any sleep tonight.
Have a wonderful week, my friends. (big hugs) Consider catching up on your sleep also. Go to bed early or sleep in. Dream about romance heroes and heroines in books you’ve read. Be warm and cozy. Feel loved.
