[FFML] Hearts of Ice for Kindle (and formatting your own fics for Kindle!)

[ranmas s]

I use Calibre as well for archiving stories.  The plugin fanfiction downloader works pretty good, and then Calibre makes it pretty easy to organize.  It does several sites and makes updating stories easy as well.

For making ebooks out of fanfiction, it does a good job, and it is not limited to downloading from just one site.  To read the stories, I use something that came installed on my asus transformer, and I have to say that works out very well.  The only problem I have with it is it sometimes cuts off the last few letters of the last word on a line.  Changing the font size kind of fixes the issue, but sometimes it just moves the issue to some place else.  Over all however I am very happy with the way that Calibre and the plugin handles stories.
