File Traditions
A folder can be a tiny publishing ritual.
Files are not only storage. They are traditions: names, versions, margins, drafts, source, images, and small agreements a creative team can share.

What To Play With First
ritual 1
Name the folder like a place.
`lake-letters/` or `moth-house/` already tells the team what kind of room they are entering.
ritual 2
Keep motifs separate.
A `motifs/` folder lets an illustrator, developer, and author talk about the same marks without hunting through a giant file.
ritual 3
Save screenshots as prompts.
A screenshot can be a memory object: enough design, enough words, enough direction for the next conversation.
