Good-bye to All That author's initials (2-2)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

ta-ta

'good-bye' is the definition.

'to all that author's initials' is the wordplay.
'initials' suggests taking the first letters.
The initial letters of 'to all that authors' is 'TA-TA'.

(Other definitions for ta-ta that I've seen before include "Cheerio" , "A Farewell" , "Bye-bye" , "Bye!" , "Adieu" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
