Bringing to life strong female characters who are witty and talented, she finds inspiration from Sherlock Holmes, Jane Austen, classic folklore, and old-world history.

Get hooked on her wide cast of characters, relatable world-building, and tightly written stories. And fall in love with her one-of-a-kind heroines and their male counterparts, who might need to eat humble pie before the tale ends.

Byrd writes the story you need, not the one you expected.

With a B.A. in journalism, she's worked in the writing field for over thirty-five years. Her hobbies include reading, nature hikes, photography, and traveling.

Byrd has cats which makes her a legit author.

My story deals with some of the questions I had about the fairytale such as the weakness of the father character, why was the Beast cursed, and who cursed him. It has a historical setting of the late Victorian period when women were starting to move into the world of employment.

Price of a Rose also has no evil stepmother or stepsisters. Instead, there is a supportive family of three sisters, all different, who in her own way helps the Beast recover from the fairy's curse. There is also an appearance by the fairy who cursed him (but shhhh I can't tell you more).(less)

I had intended for it to come out in late summer but it looks like early fall now. Book 5 and 6 are very much to be read together so I did need to work out most of 6 in order to finish 5.

When I started writing on it, we suddenly moved three states away, bought a new house that needs renovation, and my spouse changed jobs. But never fear things are settling down now and the book is well on its way being finished. I will list it very soon on Goodreads with an official release date as soon as I work out the proofing schedule with my editor.(less)

“Sometimes the rooms still change, I think, to tease us. The night of our wedding, Griffin couldn’t find our bedroom for over an hour! As you can imagine, he wasn’t as amused by this jest as I was.”
Byrd Nash, Price of a Rose: A Beauty & Beast Tale

“It takes more than good handwriting to become a Learned Magician,” scoffed Sir Griffin, highly irritated.

“Of course it does,” the girl replied with scorn, “but if a word is spelled wrong or badly, that destroys a spell. The basis of good spellcraft begins in writing. After all, the word spell means the arrangement of letters.”

Like most who had tried to debate with Poppy Parker, Sir Griffin found himself at a dead end.”
Byrd Nash, Price of a Rose: A Beauty & Beast Tale

“Evil is always possible. And goodness is eternally difficult.”
Anne Rice, Interview with the Vampire

Jane Austen, Pride and Prejudice
