Kevin Bridges has announced that he will be releasing a brand new book this summer.
The Scots funny man took to Instagram today to reveal that his new novel 'The Black Dog' will be out in August.
In his newsletter, Kevin announced the book's name and told fans a little bit about it.
He revealed that his book is 'not another autobiography' and is a 'proper book'.
He said: "I want to let you know that during one of our lockdown stints inside I confined myself to my cell and set about writing a book. Not another autobiography or anything like that, I'm talking a novel, as in, a proper book. Bonkers. That book is now being published by Wildfire books and will be released in August 2022."
He added: "It's called The Black Dog, and here's a wee bit of what it's all about....
"Declan dreams of becoming a writer. It's a dream that helps him escape the realities of his life - going through the motions at college and stacking supermarket shelves part-time, whilst fighting a battle with the ever-darkening thoughts in his head.
"He has his pet Labrador for companionship and his best friend-turned-mentor, a pseudo-intellectual who works as greenskeeper at the local municipal golf course, both of which help keep the worst of his anxieties at bay. But following a drunken row with local gangsters, Declan's worries threaten to spiral out of control.
"James Cavani - Declan's idol and his hometown's claim to fame - he's a renowned writer, director and actor. But despite his success, his past hasn't relinquished its hold of him, and through his younger sister's battle with drug addiction, he finds himself returning to a world he thought he had escaped.
"At face value, their lives couldn't be more different, but perhaps fate has a way of bringing kindred spirits together - and perhaps each holds the other's redemption in their hands."
And fans were buzzing about the news.
One wrote: "Can't wait, sounds fascinating."
Another added: "So fabulous! Can’t wait to read it!"
While one said: "Ooh just pre-ordered it. something to look forward to."
The Black Dog will be out on August 18.
