kevinconnollyauthorphoto

So local author and all-around fabulous guy, Kevin Connolly, not only has a book that is on shelves NOW, the we’ve-already-told-you-how-great-it-is-and-you’re-going-to-hear-it-again memoir, Double Take, but he’s created one of the best book promotional videos we’ve had the pleasure of seeing.

But don’t take our word for it, check it out here: http://www.mediaite.com/print/double-taking-at-kevin-connollys-double-take/.

Here’s the article from the MSU News Service: http://www.montana.edu/cpa/news/nwview.php?article=7615

Then plan to see Kevin in person on Tuesday, October 27th at 7pm right here.
