We will of course have the problem of copyright if we have to sell them and will have to get the green light from Kkat, but I can't see her complaining about the idea . The best bet would be to try and sort something out yourself. I know some fanfics I would like to get in book form to throw at my friends and yell "READ THIS!" But I have no idea how to go about it, other than just sticking them in a ring binder.

I just checked Lulu.com, an 800 page hardcover 8"x10" book with colour covers and black & white pages would run about $35 each and you can buy them one at a time, no need for bulk printing. So, about $70 for the entire series in a two book set. I've bought books from them in the past and they were pretty decent. One person could set up the book on their service in private mode then provide a buy link on request (for cost only, of course).

BTW, if someone could make some black & white artwork to lead into each chapter, well, that would be awesome :)

BTW2, Chapter 20.5 should be included and chapter 41.5 really needs to exist ;)

Ok, once the stories are finished, I'll contact the authors for permission and start formatting them.

Sweet, that would be great to get one of these. I would even pay the probably high shipping cost for one of these!

But we have to wait and god knows how long that will take. Thanks Arcane Scroll!

You're welcome, I want one of these sets of books as much as everybody else :)

Also, Image would make a beautiful wrap-around cover if the artist didn't mind.

Look like Kkat has mentioned how she would split up the story so far:

Volume 1: Introduction - Chapter 9
Volume 2: Chapter 10 - Chapter 21
Volume 3: Chapter 22 - Chapter 29
Volume 4: Chapter 30 - Chapter 38
Volume 5: Chapter 39 - Afterwords

5 volumes, that's a lot off books. And we aren't even done yet.
