Unveiling the Creative Dawn: Inside S. A. Crow's Morning Routine for Writing Success


In the fast-paced world of romance suspense writing, authors often find solace and inspiration in establishing a structured morning routine. Join S. A. Crow, the mastermind behind the captivating Fire Series, as we delve into her morning rituals that set the tone for a day filled with creativity and productivity.

6 AM: Rise and Shine

  • The day begins with Felix from Stray Kids saying “Wakey, Wakey” in his deep voice of the alarm clock at 6 am.



  • Then it's onto some bed stretches for a few moments and then a calming meditation while my puppies try to get my attention because they know that I'm awake.

Furry Companions: A.J. and Destiny

  • You might know from my YouTube videos or Bark Adventures that we have two black Lab. mix puppies named A. J. and Destiny. Once I'm dressed for the day I get out of bed and try to make my bed while the dogs are excited to go outside.

  • The next order of business is letting the dogs out for their morning stroll, connecting with nature, and setting a positive tone for the day, before they get their morning treat.

Tea Time for Inspiration

  • With the dogs taken care of, I brew her first mug of hot tea. This morning is a London Fog tea drink. Simply Earl Gray, Vanilla syrup, and creamer or milk. I'll be putting this recipe into next year's cookbook along with another favorite drink of mine.

  • The comforting warmth of the tea serves as a catalyst for creativity as I prepare to dive into the world of her characters.

Engaging the Writing Community

Editing and ARC Preparation

  • The morning is dedicated to the meticulous editing and formatting of the advanced reader copy (ARC) for my upcoming novel, "If the Seas Catch Fire." You can find the sign-up link on the home page.

  • You can learn more about If the Seas Catch Fire in these blog posts

Transition to Other Projects

  • Around 9 am, it's time to shift focus to various projects and communications.

  • Whether it's working on a new storyline, collaborating with other authors, or responding to reader messages, this time allows me time to embrace the diversity of the creative endeavors.

Admin Work and Community Building

  • Before lunch, S. A. Crow dedicates time to administrative tasks related to author accounts and the writing group, "On the Wings for Writers."

  • Building and maintaining a thriving community is crucial to me, and I ensure that both my personal brand and the writing group are running smoothly.

My morning routine serves as a blueprint for me to seek balance, inspiration, and productivity. By nurturing my creativity from the moment the alarm rings, I set the stage for a day filled with literary magic, leaving readers eagerly anticipating the next installment of the Fire Series.
