hey, if you get it, let me know how much it costs to add it to your kindle. I want to add some fanfics to mine as well. I love my Kindle. Have had it for almost a year.
It actually doesn't cost anything. If it's in text, then I send it to my free Kindle email ( __________@free.kindle.com ) and then it sends it to me in a format that I can download and then transfer to my Kindle by hooking it up to my laptop and tranferring it.
If it's a PDF, then I save it as text first and then do what I did above.
Your computer should see the Kindle as a USB storage device when you plug it in, and you can just copy and paste into the Documents folder of your Kindle :D
From what I know its not in PDF or any other format. You need to copy and past it in word and then convert it to PDF if you have word 2007. Then you can send it to your Kindle either to the @free.kindle or the regular one.
If you converted it to PDF and want to send it to your Kindle then you can put convert in the subject line and then amazon will attempt to format the PDF into a full pdf so that you may have more to play with.
I can send txt files to the @free.kindle email and then download it to my computer and then upload it onto my Kindle by plugging my Kindle into my computer. It looks just like the books that I buy ...
It does. I just send it straight to my Kindle. I dont bother going through my laptop or computer. Neither of them want to talk to my Kindle very well, so its just easier to send it straight to my Kindle.
You could Just Use Calibre to take the html and turn it in to an e-pub or a mobi file. Kindle doesn't read e-pub, Nooks, Sony e-readers, and Kobo do. Kindle will read .mobi; Anyway as long as the e-pub file isn't DRMed Calibre will easily turn it into a file format you Kindle will read, that way you can have both format in case you ever change e-readers.
The new Kindle's and Nook's both natively read PDF's so if you have a PDF you don't need to send it to the auto generator to get the e-book in you kindle e-mail
*I have not used Calibre myself to do this. My sister has, and I now have several fics I like on my kindle. Te good thing about creating the e-book yourself is you can control the table of contents so it is active. A lot of auto geneerated e-books do not have a Table of Contents.
Also if you plan on posting the e-book file of "Repossession" try to e-mail the author first just in case she doesn't actually want her fic as an e-book.
