If there are any i-net, fan legal experts out there on my friends' lists, I'd be happy to hear your opinion about this. :)
Red flag, bull; catnip, cat; etc.
I wouldn't think there are any issues if the fic is available in ebook instead of HTML or TXT or whatever; it's just another electronic format. As long as you a) don't charge for it, b) don't distribute commercially, c) don't claim copyright in the characters created by someone else, it's not really much of a step removed from how fanfics are already published electronically and online.
