WebtoEpub Firefox addon, Leech, WebNovelConverter

I use a command-line tool called leech, which comes with some pre-built configurations for various sites and stories - including Worm. There are other story converter tools out there, and since FanFiction.net's recent API screwup changes I've used WebToEpub for that.

What problem are you running into getting Leech to work? I looked it up, and it seems like you mean this. I tested out locally, and it worked for me out of the box. Pip successfully installed poetry, and poetry installed all of the required components when called from inside leech-master. I did have to download with Royal Road instead of the original Fictionpress, possibly due to cloudflare blocking me for scraping too fast.

It's all at a very approachable level, too. I had to write an epub-maker as a necessary component for a project, and it turned out to be ~150 lines of python. You have to make a few indexes in XML and stick them into a zip file, basically.

Anyway, it has been unknown for years what the actual word count of the fic is, but I think I may have worked it out. Using this site called FicHub: https://fichub.net/ I downloaded the entire work as a .epub. Then I put it into Calibre and installed a word counter plugin for Calibre. It is known to be fairly(?) accurate.

im getting it too, which is weird that i am. luckily, i can use fichub to download what fanfics i got bookmarked and read them that way

I just thought I’d let people know that fic hub, https://fichub.net is an amazing place to download fanfiction.

Try FicHub if you have the full URL. Supports many sites.

Dropping links of fics into FicHub and downloading the epubs to read

If you have the link for the AO3 page, you could try fichub.

I’m really sorry. If you have URLs for fics, you might be able to download them here: https://fichub.net. This site seems to cache fics people have downloaded previously, so if someone had downloaded it before today it should be there. I know it’s not the same though since you can’t browse.
