Ode to TAA

As part of TAA Council member Ron Pynn’s “Ode to the Book”, which he recited during the 2014 TAA Awards Luncheon, was this little ditty about TAA:

Now there is an organization known as TAA
to belong you must pay.
Their advice is most wise
for they know how to advise.
Workshops they provide
far and wide.
If to write you want to learn
then a mentor you should yearn.
With a contract to negotiate
a TAA lawyer you contact.
Their conferences you must attend
so your practices you can amend.
For 25 years they have been sound,
protecting author rights all around.
