Lake Report workflow

Best structure for Dane to send drafts

Send one folder per post:

001-mizumi-origin-story/
  draft.md
  mizumi-driveway.jpg
  mizumi-purchased.jpeg
  mizumi-breakdown.jpeg
  eva.jpeg

The markdown can use either of these image styles:

![Caption text](mizumi-driveway.jpg)

or simple placeholders:

[MIZUMI_IN_DRIVEWAY.jpg HERE]

Split will turn that into the Hugo-native structure below.

Final Hugo structure

Each Lake Report entry should be a Hugo leaf bundle:

content/blog/lake-report/001-mizumi-origin-story/
  index.md
  mizumi-driveway.jpg
  mizumi-purchased.jpeg
  mizumi-breakdown.jpeg
  eva.jpeg

Benefits:

• images stay next to the post they belong to
• markdown/HTML can use relative image paths
• posts can be moved or renamed without breaking global asset paths
• drafts are easy: set draft: true in index.md
