Grant Supports Faculty Writing Workshops

By Admin | August 19, 2017

Textbook and Academic Authors Association has funded several of Dr. King’s faculty writing and publishing workshops through a special grant. Recent workshops have included Florida Gulfcoast University, Fort Meyers, FL, University of Nevada, Las Vegas, NV, and others.

These 3 hour workshops are specifically crafted to guide faculty in overcoming the challenges they face and utilize King’s well-honed strategies for publishing success.

The Textbook & Academic Authors Association (TAA) provides professional development resources, events, and networking opportunities for textbook authors and authors of scholarly journal articles and books. Established in 1987 by math author Mike Keedy, TAA is the only national, nonprofit membership association dedicated solely to assisting textbook and academic authors. TAA’s name was changed from “Text and Academic Authors Association” to “Textbook & Academic Authors Association” in 2016 to offer a clearer identity for TAA in light of the new meaning of “texting” on smart devices today.

TAA offers a wide array of resources and benefits to help you navigate your path to writing success. These benefits include publication grants, webinars, a monthly print newsletter, and a variety of networking opportunities available through CONNECT, TAA’s online member community.
