S/A (Quantum Leap letterzine)

S/A is a slash Quantum Leap letterzine. It was letter-sized, stapled, and ran around 20 pages. It required an age statement to order. There were at least four issues, with a fifth in the works (and perhaps published).
From On the Double: "A letterzine for the Quantum Leap slash fan to bring this fandom together. A thought provoking quarterly discussing Sam and Al and their relationship. Filled with letters of comment, news, zine information and reviews."
==Regarding the Title==
From the first issue: "Micrazy is pronounced mick’-razy. The translation is “Am I Crazy”!"
==Wishes for the Future!==
From the first issue: "Best of luck on your letterzine. May S/A survive as long as K/S!." 
From the first issue: "Quantum Leap slash fandom is just a baby fandom yet. There are so many stories that need to be written, so many ideas that need to be explored. There is a lot waiting in the wings for this fandom and I think we ain't seen nothing yet."
==Doing a Good Deed, and A Thank You==
From the first issue: "Writing stories is, for me, a lot easier than writing letters. And I always cringe when I read back what I've written... But I force myself, because I want to do my part, to participate in the care and nurture of this fandom. So here goes...
First of all, I want to applaud Stacy for taking this important project upon herself. We need a regular, reliable forum. A place to get together and share ideas and thoughts. It's about time."
==Drumming Up Interest for the First Issue==
