Byrd Nash asked Byrd Nash:

What is your writing routine like? Your average day?

Byrd Nash Writing for each author is so different since it springs from our creative minds. I've found a routine really helps in getting words down on the computer. On the other hand, I also need some flexibility in what I'm doing if the words aren't flowing.

I try to spend 2-4 hours about 5x a week in writing. When things aren't working out with a plot, I switch gears to researching or doing graphics, such as book covers. The last two week I've been expanding my Photoshop skills with tutorials and workshops.

Something different for me this year is I've started having multiple projects in hand. For example, my novel A Spell of Rowans is at my editor, which can take weeks to a month before coming back to me.

While I'm waiting to hear back, I'm working on two separate short stories: Locked in Love, which is a Rapunzel fairytale retelling; and A Knight's Word, which is a medieval fantasy short story.

All three projects are slated to be published this year, but the dates are still being decided.
