Examples

“Having discovered fandom at AUSSIECON I, I have been publishing WEBERWOMAN'S WREVENGE since 1980. I am an enthusiastic apahack and book reviewer, an organiser of conventions until I learned better, have been editor of ANZAPA for two years, and am suspected of a prurient interest in other people's personal relationships.”
“Yup, that's why I have a basement full of Gestetners (a 260, a 360, a 420, and a 1525), a couple of ancient Rex-Rotary M4s and two e-stencillers. And a hectograph. I have been a fanzine editor and apahack, but it's been a while since last I pubbed my ish.”
“Did you ever know an apahack named Mike Wood (1948-1983); died the day before his 35th birthday from complications of his diabetes). He had some of the same beliefs for spelling, and I got used to it.”
