Random quote: "Swords, Lances, arrows, machine guns, and even high explosives have had far less power over the fates of nations than the typhus louse, the plague flea, and the yellow-fever mosquito. Civilizations have retreated from the plasmodium of malaria, and armies have crumbled into rabbles under the onslaught of cholera spirilla, or of dysentery and typhoid bacilli. Huge areas have been devastated by the trypanosome that travels on the wings of the tsetse fly, and generations have been harassed by the syphilis of a courtier. War and conquest and that herd existence which is an accompaniment of what we call civilization have merely set the stage for these more powerful agents of human tragedy." ― Hans Zinsser, Rats, Lice and History

Now that the WWEnd database includes essay collections like Ursula K. Le Guin's Dancing on the Edge of the World: Thoughts on Words, Women, Places, we could use a new 'Nonfiction' genre category in addition to the current 'Horror,' 'Fantasy,' and 'Science-Fiction' categories.

You're right, that would be a useful flag to set on our non-fiction works. I'll chat with whargoul about it.  Thanks for the suggestion!
