Carroll of News Channel 3 Will Sign and Sell Most Recent Books In Dayton, Tennessee

David Carroll of Local 3 News will sell and sign his most recent books, “I Won’t Be Your Escape Goat,”  and "Hello Chattanooga" on Saturday, December 21st at Food City at 420 Market Street in Dayton from 1:00 to 2:00 p.m. 

Carroll says, “The new book is all humor, 100 percent. A few years back, I began collecting and compiling the funny mistakes we all make on social media, text messages, church bulletins, and even signs in stores and on the highway. I included these in several columns, and the response was tremendous. People told me I could fill up a book with them, and make people laugh. So that’s what I did.”

“I Won’t Be Your Escape Goat” includes more than 400 funny mistakes "that are caused by spellcheck, AutoCorrect and voice to text,” he said, “and others are just because some of us didn’t pay enough attention in school.”

He added, “If you like to laugh, or know someone who could use a smile or two, my new book is the perfect gift to yourself or someone else.”

The book is published by Fresh Ink Press, and information on how to order is on Carroll’s website, ChattanoogaRadioTV.com. The book can also be ordered by mail by sending a check ($19.95 plus $5.00 postage) to David Carroll at 900 Whitehall Road, Chattanooga, TN 37405. All books are personally autographed by the author. 

Carroll's other book, "Hello Chattanooga: Famous People Who Have Visited the Tennessee Valley,” is a 700-page collection, including photos of the famous people who have visited our region, including recording stars, presidents, sports stars, and movie actors. Softcover editions are available for $30 and hard copies (with color pictures) are available for $40.

Carroll, the longtime news anchor at WRCB Local 3 News in Chattanooga, speaks frequently at local clubs and church groups, and  you may contact him at RadioTV2020@yahoo.com.
