Mail Order Annie
Copyright© 2025 by DFL Runner
Foreword
Being a fan of Harry Chapin’s music is not essential to your understanding and enjoyment of the story ... but if you are a fan, there is plenty here for you.
This story is a work of fiction. The names of three characters, and certain elements of this story’s plot, are taken from “Mr. Tanner” by Harry Chapin, copyright © 1973, WB Music Corp. o/b/o Story Songs Ltd, and from “Mail Order Annie” by Harry Chapin, copyright © 1973, WB Music Corp. o/b/o Story Songs Ltd. Both songs appear on the album “Short Stories” from Elektra Records.
Both songs, as well as other Harry Chapin songs quoted or otherwise referenced in this work, are used without permission from the Estate of Harry Chapin, but are not being used for any commercial venture. They are, however, being used with the deepest respect for the man who wrote the stories and brought them to life through music.
