Reload for Spotify listeners - 'Friday Barnes 2, Under Suspicion'

Sun, 20 Jul 2025 16:00:00 +1000

Spotify blocked this episode when it dropped on Wednesday. They were worried I was infringing on the author's copyright, but of course, I am the author. I own the copyright. I have the right to record and publish it. Usually this is easy to fix, because Spotify sends me a link so I can get the episode reinstated. But the link doesn't work. I've been messaging with Spotify trying to fix this for five days and have made no progress. So I'm going to see if reloading the episode works. If you've already downloaded this episode on another platform, my apologies. If you are listening to this on Spotify - hurray!!!

Mr Wolf Pie - Redux

Wed, 15 May 2024 06:00:00 +1000

Hamlet is Not OK - extract from my new book

Wed, 05 Jul 2023 07:00:00 +1000

My new book 'Hamlet is Not OK' goes on sale this week. I recorded two chapters as a bonus episode to promote this event. I hope you enjoy it.

Here's what it says about 'Hamlet is Not OK' on the back of the book...

Selby hates homework. She would rather watch TV - anything to escape the tedium of school, her parent's bookshop and small-town busybodies. So Selby didn't plan to read Hamlet. She certainly never planned to meet him.

Hamlet, the much-maligned miseryguts, is seen here with the empathy of a modern teenager's gaze. With warmth, brilliant banter, deadpan humour and, well, dead people. R.A. Spratt brings her trademark wit to Shakespeare's famous play.

If you want to read the rest, it's available at all book shops in Australia or your favourite online book seller. Here's a link for amazon.com.au...

https://amzn.asia/d/dcv6vLM

There is also an audiobook available from Audible or where ever else you like to buy audiobooks. Here's a link for Audible

Fri, 01 Jul 2022 06:00:00 +1000

This is a repeat episode because I'm away on holiday. It's one of my favourites because it is the first of the Greek Myths I did with Nanny Piggins. It was a lot of fun and I've done many Greek Myths since. Although some of the names are hard to pronounce which means I have to do lots of retakes when I'm recording.

A Tall Tale about Socks and Goblins

Wed, 29 Jun 2022 00:00:00 +1000

This is another replay because I'm on holiday with my family.

I love this story. It may be one that appeals more to Mums. I like that it features both of my daughters. My older daughter always complains that she isn't mentioned as much in the tall tales as her younger sister. I love the sock fairy. It is one of my favourite ideas I've come up with for this series.

This is a replay of a story I wrote for the Adelaide Writer's Festival in 2021. I tried to record it live but it all went horribly wrong, so I recorded this in my hotel room that night.

Nanny Piggins and the Sherbet Lemon That Saved the Day

Wed, 16 Sep 2020 06:00:00 +1000

To celebrate the upcoming release of the audiobook of 'The Adventures of Nanny Piggins', I'm posting this live recording of me reading Chapter 4 from that book. I recorded this at a zoom event for The Little Bookroom in Melbourne. You can't hear them because they were muted but there were over 90 kids listening in as I read and I could see their faces in the little boxes all over my screen.

This is a classic Nanny Piggins story from the first book in her series. It features her first experience driving a car and the first appearance of the Police Sergeant who went on to become a much loved character.

The Dreadful Martian Encounter

When Amy and James have to demonstrate a principle of physics for their school science fair, Amy decides to go big. While other kids make paper mache volcanos and drop eggs of the roof, Amy builds an intergalactic space ship so they can travel to another planet.

I wrote this story a long time ago, back when I was doing Nanny Piggins. It was a challenge because I had a strict word limit, which is why it is a bit shorter. I enjoyed the oppurtunity to write about something totally different. I'd never done science fiction before and I really wanted to do a 'Twilight Zone' style twist ending. I hope you like it.
