Amateur Press Associations (APAs) are not-for-profit unions of fan writers who are interested in document design, publishing, criticism, and creative activity (creative writing, drawing, gaming). APA members produce their own "zines" and send these "zines" to an OVEREDITOR, who collates the associations’ publications into a unified document and assures that they are distributed to members. APAs have a long history in fandom and today provide a useful alternative to the other forms of fan communication.
TRIAPA is an APA organized by Spiral Tower Press to give fan writers the opportunity of participating in this venerable tradition of fandom and print history. The focuses of TRIPA are three sets of three: the pulp genres of sword and sorcery, cosmic horror, and space opera; the past, present, and future of science fiction, fantasy, and supernatural horror; and chronopolitanism, compassion, and hope.
