Physical Challenge ep4 - Tripod Headstand!

@tony_flowers99 has turned me into a cartoon character on his instagram feed! I see what you’re doing, Flowers. Revenge will be mine. #challengeaccepted

COMPETITION TIME! I’m giving away 9 of these Friday Barnes/Potato Race T-shirts. To enter all you have to do is listen to my podcast ‘Bedtime Stories with R.A. Spratt’ then rate and review it on Apple Podcasts or ITunes. Take a screen shot as proof. Then send that to me in a PM along with your postal address and preferred T-shirt size. Competition closes April 8th. Wherever you are in the world please do enter. I will send out signed bookmarks as consolation prizes so everyone will be a winner.

My friend the awesomely talented illustrator @tony_flowers99 designed new cover art for my podcast today. He has ordered me ‘to go and spread some happiness’. I will do my best.

The new ep of my podcast is out. My stories are 100% silly and guaranteed to cheer you up. Just google ‘RA Spratt podcast’ to find it.

I promised to post a clue about the upcoming FRIDAY BARNES 9. ***SPOILER ALERT*** This guy is going to make a cameo. If you’re thinking ‘but that’s not a guy, that’s a jar with a bone in it’ well it is in fact a finger bone from the great Italian scientist Gallileo. Pretty gross, huh?

Very sad the potato races had to be called off at the Robertson Show. It’s always such a wonderful community event. But I look forward to being back next year to sponsor the girls’ race. In the meantime I’ve got a huge box of Friday Barnes/Potato Race shirts so I’ll be announcing a competition on the 25th if you’d like a chance to win one (that doesn’t require running 400m carrying spuds). Watch this space.

Finished PESKI KIDS 5 yesterday. Today I start rereading these so I can get to work writing FRIDAY BARNES 9. #frianreturns #newending #stopthehatemail

Writing the last chapter of the last PESKI KIDS book. Determined to get less hate mail for how I end this series.

At brilliant husband’s blockbuster play ‘Senior Moments’. Got roped in to handing out programs while they sorted out our tickets.

New episode of my podcast just dropped. Check it out on Spotify or Apple Podcasts!

When asking family members to read your manuscript it is important to give them clear instructions.
