Air circulation is the most effective means of drying wood- both firewood and lumber.
Stack the wood off the ground, in such a way that air can move through the stacked wood. Do NOT cover the sides, but cover the top with anything that will shed water. Of course, split firewood will dry quicker, since splitting it exposes more of the inside to the air.
You might want to consider building a firewood storage shed.
