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.

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.

Strike Zone And Action-Seeking Cyborgs
Cyborgs were manufactured for battle.
They are designed for action. They seek action. They NEED action.
The cyborgs on the Dauntless are some of the best warriors in the universe. Their need to take action is more accentuated than that of the average cyborg.
And, due to their recent reprimand, they have been assigned a very passive role.
That’s creating tension on the battle station. And chaos. Because idle beings of action tend to create their own excitement. And that excitement isn’t always…safe. (grins)

Throwback Thursday – Doc’s Orders
A series about space exploration wouldn’t, unfortunately be complete without a story centering around the diseases newcomers might transfer to the often isolated local population. That has always been a terrible consequence of exploration.
Doc’s Orders is that story in the cyborg world. I wrote it before COVID and our own Earth-based pandemic. At the time, scientists believed Candida auris would likely become a pandemic (it still might become one) and that is what I roughly based the outbreak in Doc’s Orders on.
Doc’s Orders might be too…real for some readers. And that’s okay. Skip this story and read the next one in the series.
Doc’s Orders
She wants both sides of her cyborg—the medic AND the beast.
A fully functional cyborg is balanced. His machine half and his organic half work together to produce the perfect warrior.
Doc isn’t fully functional.
The G Model operates at the two extremes. When his machine is in complete control, he’s the logic-driven medic, saving lifespans. Once his organics take charge, he becomes the savage beast…and beings die.
Both sides of Doc want to be the first to claim his female.
Allinen is one of the few beings in her small settlement who wasn’t born with a fated mate. Determined to belong somewhere, she has crafted a plan to leave the planet.
That plan doesn’t involve a huge stormy-eyed male who alternates between cool seduction and out-of-control ravishment. Doc isn’t her fated mate. Allinen knows that. But his dual nature and forbidden embraces tempt her to forget forever and indulge in more immediate delights.
Neither side of Doc views their relationship as being temporary. Her conflicted cyborg is prepared to battle her family, her planet and death itself to keep her.

Strike Zone And Being The Sole Child Of A Single Mom
Kesser, the human heroine of Strike Zone, the first core story in the Dauntless Cyborgs series (releasing in February), is the sole child of a widowed and now single mom.
She loves her mom. The two of them are very close.
Kesser’s mom relies on her for a lot. She asks Kesser’s advice on a multitude of subjects. They live together (the culture on their planet is unpartnered children live with their parents). And they spend part of each planet rotation (day) together.
I am a child of a single mom. My relationship with my Awesome Mom is very different than my Dear Wonderful Hubby’s relationship with his two parents. His parents have each other to discuss matters with. My mom discusses these same matters with me and my siblings.
Leaving home was and is also more complicated for me. I have five siblings yet I’m always concerned my Awesome Mom might be lonely and/or isolated. This concern would be greater for Kesser due to her planet’s culture.
Kesser is committed to her mom. And Strike is committed to his brethren and the crew of the Dauntless.
Their future is very much uncertain.

Muse Food – Whale Sculptures And Meeting Expectations
One of the things travelers expect to see when they’re visiting Grand Turks are whales.
But whales, being wild living creatures, don’t adhere to anyone else’s schedule. They do their own thing and they appear when they want to appear.
Which means some travelers won’t see whales when they visit Grand Turks.
Living whales.
Leaders on Grand Turks have ensured travelers will always see A whale by installing a magnificent life-sized whale sculpture by the shore.
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I thought this was a clever way to ensure Grand Turks meets visitor expectations. (grins)
Our readers have expectations when they pick up our stories also. Think of creative ways to meet those expectations!

Gardening – Planning Plantings
The Dear Wonderful Hubby and I are planning plantings. (grins) That’s fun to say, isn’t it? And it is fun to do.
We plan to grow the mini tomatoes and the mutated heirloom tomatoes again. We harvested seeds from the best plants in 2023 and will be growing from those. That way, we’re hoping the tomatoes will eventually evolve for our (ever changing) climate and (more constant) soil.
We’ll be trying to grow sweet mini bell peppers this year. We harvested those seeds from peppers we bought in the grocery store. We’re hoping to get more of a harvest from the minis. And we’ll be growing them in pots to try to combat the slugs.
We plan to grow pole beans, peas, radishes, lettuce, spinach as we did last year.
We’ll attempt to grow watermelon again.
Zucchini (courgettes) and butternut squash will be new for us in 2024! The Dear Wonderful Hubby is especially excited about the zucchini. He really wants to grow a plant that produces too much for us to easily use. Zucchini should do that.

Strike Zone And Preferences
In Intrepid Encounter, Intrepid projects Strike, his second-in-command, chooses not to participate in mock battles because he prefers to spend more time at the helm of the battle station.
He projects that because HE enjoys flying. That would be HIS choice.
And he also processes that most cyborg warriors love the mock battles. They love to fight and to mock kill their brethren.
Strike doesn’t have the same preferences as most warriors. And he forgoes the mock battles for a very different reason.

Muse Food – Daisies And Contrasts
I love daisies. I love the contrast between the pristine white petals and the bright yellow centers. Daisies make me happy. (smiles)
I love contrasts in stories also.
I love the grumpy hero and the sunshine heroine. I love the dark moment followed by the romantic happy ever after. I love a sliver of tenderness during a brutal battle. I love the aiming-for-perfection heroine and the chaos-causing hero.
Contrasts are interesting. They had excitement to a story. I enjoy them.

Cynthia Sax Weekly Update – January 21
Strike Zone, the first core story in the Dauntless Cyborgs series (releasing in February), has been loaded at booksellers. Woot! I love this story. I’m super excited about the Dauntless Cyborgs series. I can’t wait to share it with you.
I’ve started the first draft of the Drift Would, the second core story in the Dauntless Cyborgs series (releasing in June), and wow. This story is fast paced and action packed, exactly what you’d expect from a hero with a need for speed. (grins) Drift’s heroine moves at the same quick pace.
Have a wonderful week, my friends. (big hugs) If you’re saving a holiday present for a special day, make today that day. (smiles) We’re here, spinning round, on the best planet in the universe. That warrants a treat. Be good to yourself, my friends. You’re amazing.

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.
