So to give me some better ideas on how to structure the file directories with Calibre (and use Calibre to sync my PP with the database), anyone care to share their regular expressions?
You will need to either do some steps using Calibre filters and adjust the save template or only have tags for folders you wish sorts to :/

Note: you can place "literals" into the save template (see my example above) if you have/want to keep all existing tags. You will need to choose the template before xfer.

To get: (Fiction/Non-Fiction)\Author\Book Title- Author
With only those 2 tags used within Calibre Library
{tags}/{authors}/{title}- {authors} #<<Note space requested, after -
