My new book! Well … not really. It’s just a dummy my publisher made for me for a presentation I’m doing on Friday. But it does look super cool! @jesscruicky cover is fantastic. And my publisher has some pretty sweet craft skills putting this together.
I'm currently editing 'Bedtime Stories with R.A. Spratt' (my third book coming out this year after 'Hamlet is Not Okay' but before 'Friday Barnes 12, Collision Course'). If you are wondering what it is like for my poor editor to work with me, here are some samples of my comments on her comments.
When I first became a writer, 25 years ago, I had only just started wearing glasses. Now I’m up to three pairs. The yellow ones are computer multifocals, the orange ones are reading glasses and the purple ones are my regular multifocals. (I don’t usually wear them all at once).
Tickets are now on sale for the 'Hamlet is Not OK' book launch! Please do come along - it's going to be super fun. I will be reading from the book, telling stories, talking Shakespeare, possibly singing songs, hopefully blasting confetti and definitely signing books after the show.
I was in a Penguin HQ recording the audiobook for NANNY PIGGINS 4, THE ACCIDENTAL BLAST-OFF today. Big thank you to @soundwjason for his endless patience with my inability to speak slowly and say consonants. It was a lot of fun. I do love telling stories!
Cover reveal! My next book 'Hamlet is Not OK' comes out in July. Thank you @jesscruicky for designing such a beautiful cover.
