Whether in a novel, his autobiography, screenplays or other projects, Craig writes with a unique style. This week, he wrote a piece for the UK’s New Statesman<\/a> magazine, which has been posted on their website. In it, he talks about his transition from living in Scotland to living in Los Angeles, and as you read it, you can hear his voice. It’s not the first time Craig has penned a magazine-style essay. He wrote a piece for Parade Magazine<\/a> back in 2010.\r\n\r\nConnolly in LA<\/strong><\/span>\"Billy<\/a>\r\nLegendary Scottish comedian Billy Connolly<\/strong> is performing in Los Angeles<\/a> this weekend, doing two stand up shows at the Ricardo Montalban Theatre.
