Moderators of NBRC wrote: " Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What genres count for the literature category?
A: The Literature category must be a genre that is part of the Literature genre or one of it's subcategories. They are all listed on this page: Click Here"
"Literature is the art of written works. The two most basic written literary categories include fiction and non-fiction, although "literature" in popular use can also mean a sub-genre of fiction called literary fiction." - linked Literature page
So if I am reading this correctly, the literature category is not just literary fiction, but anything written, fiction or non-fiction?
P.S. I'm not seeing a subcategory list beyond what I quoted above, except for the "RELATED GENRES" section which lists Fiction at the top, and then 20th Century, 21st Century, etc.
