Ever come across a wonderful fic on livejournal that you'd love to save? I know I have. Thing is, there doesn't appear to be anything out on the internet that lets you download posts from LJ. There used to be, squeebook and FLAG both used to work, but not anymore. So here's a simple work around. And by simple, I mean extremely basic. No fancy ( Read more... )

Once you've finally found that fanfic you've been craving, you'll want to hang on to it. So I personally use a free library program called Calibre to save stuff.

Now, I'll be the first to admit that I'm not a big Spock/McCoy fan. It's honestly not something I go looking for, but I'll read just about anything that's well-written.
