Bill Tapply died tuesday. http://www.williamgtapply.com/
A writer who could tell a great tale, be it bird hunting or fishing. A good mystery writer as well. RIP.

Did he do "Tap's Tips?"

Regardless, I hate to see these icons, or semi-icons, depending on how you feel, go under.

Yeah he did as did his father before him.

A very good friend of his, Phillip Craig died about a year ago. They wrote a few books togather, with the story taking place on Martha's Vineyard. Both were among mt favorite authors.

I just read his essay "Invisible Writing" on his website. Great stuff.

Sad day, I enjoyed his writing.

Sad news. May he rest in peace.

William G. Tapply died Tuesday 28 July 2009, but his written words still instruct and delight. A sample of his articles is available on www.williamgtapply dot com. I believe that he was a master of the writer's craft.
