FIAWOL is a science fiction fanzine by Arnie Katz and Joyce Katz.

The initials FIAWOL stand for Fandom Is A Way Of Life, and appropriately FIAWOL was a news zine reporting on events in science fiction fandom. It was published in the 1970s in Brooklyn, New York, U.S.A.

In September 1972, Checkpoint # 23 said, "FIAWOL is a fine, new, fannish newszine..."

Contributors of art work included Ross Chamberlain.

The first issue was published in July 1972, with issues 2 and 3 appearing the same year. At least eight issues came out, with issues 4, 5, and 6 released in December 1973, and issues 7 and 8 in 1974.

Included in issue 2 is an editorial by Joyce Katz, and the 1971 Egoboo Poll, with the results appearing in the 5th issue.
