Bill Torrey is a sixth generation Vermonter who spent most of his life working alone in the woods. In the fall of 2013, he retired from logging with almost all his fingers and toes. In 201,4 he began work as a writer and oral storyteller because he's never let fear and common sense stop him from doing stuff. He has won four Moth Story Slams and three Extempo Competitions at Central Vermont's premiere, live, true storytelling event, and has performed by invitation at Burlington's Flynn Theater, Middlebury College, and the Vermont State House. Apparently, he'll ramble on in front of anybody. In an era before car seats, airbags, and childproof caps, The Ta Ta Weenie Club brings the reader back to a simpler, slower pace in life. It was a period where a parent's authority was the law and was backed up by real means. A homespun collection of twenty stories of a time when a kid could leave the house in the morning to go out and play until dusk with loyal friends and tolerated family. From county fairs and middle school dances, to loving hound dogs and mean teachers, these stories are exercises in life's lessons that shaped the future of a young man. It was a special space in time between country and urban life that has evaporated into the fog of progress and has now reappeared within the paragraphs on these pages.
