Whether searching for authors/books or obscure themes within the genre, the SFE offers a huge (and free) database. If you're new to Science Fiction--reading or writing--and don't understand a particular concept, this online reference is a great place to start. Several of the themes and/or keywords can even inspire stories in their own right. Wanna know what a Jonbar Point is? A Kipple?

I seldom read sci fi, yet I watch sci fi movies and shows all the time. Anyway, thanks for the resource -- it'll come in handy.
I don't read or write much sci fi either. But I would love to learn how to build a sci fi world.

I do reas a fair amount of SF and I don't know these terms.
Thanks for the resource.
