Thomas Bruso asked Nancy Springer:

HI, Nancy. I am always interested how another authors work. Can you talk about your writing schedule? Do you have a favorite time of day you like to write? How many pages, or words, do you aim for when you write? Do you write everyday? And would you write even if you were not published? I love your books. Please keep writing!

Nancy Springer Yeppers, Thomas, every day, first thing in the morning after breakfast. Writing is my "fix." If I don't write, I get cranky and anxious. But I don't aim for any particular amount of verbiage. When I get tired, I take a nap. If I weren't published, I would probably write in notebooks, keep journals, write poetry. As it is, I have plenty of book ms that didn't get published!

Thank you for loving my books!

Dave asked Nancy Springer:

I've been revisiting your Book of Isle series and it's exactly the kind of comforting escapism I need while the rest of the world goes insane. I also loved The Oddling Prince (and really, all of your fantasy work). My question is, are there any plans for The Oddling Prince to be part of a series? Or for any other new fantasy work from you?
