I keep it simple
what I'm working on is in "my writing" folder
which has several subfolders - Mastercopy, version #??, research, character sketches, etc
during re-write folders may include 'chapter in progress', critiques, etc
then there's 'my other writing' which has several sub folders
like for children, for adults, non-fic, etc.
then any idea that I get and start I pop in with it's working title even if just a paragraph.
I enjoy going thru it all now and then (or part of it) and may even add bits, or sometimes realize (like while walking the beach) that 2 isolated bits connect and go in and combine them via the new bit that has popped into the gray cells.
There's also a folder for info on writing tools.
It works for me and those folders may vary from a paragraph to a finished novel awaiting re-write and anything in between.
