Hi Amalthia! Saw your eBook archive - Damn! I can't say I'm the first now!
As suggested I started a thread on the copyright aspects of fanfic in eBooks in the Lounge. I'd be interested in finding out more about fanfic as a "transformative work" - got a source? One interesting concept I saw was that fan productions can be described as
unauthorised derivative works - it doesn't change their legal status but it gives you a way of relating them to the originals
Cheers
