The Association of Writers (Ukrainian: Асоціація Письменників, romanized: Asotsiatsiia pysmennykiv), known as Aspys (АСПИС), was a Ukrainian literary society active in Kyiv from the end of 1923 to 1924. Aspys was led by Mykola Zerov and Mykhailo Mohyliansky [uk].

In 1924, disagreements about Ukrainian national heritage and the future of Ukrainian literature caused a split within Aspys and led to the formation of the Lanka (Ланка; lit. 'Link') literary society. Following the creation of Lanka, Aspys was dissolved.
