+## Authors
+
+Post authors can be kept under `/blog/authors/`. Authors are kept in separate directories.
+
+The authors directory is parsed by [`article.php`](/git/20xd6/simple_blog/src/commit/7734de9fa483257a90a658b74b78b47e4de716e2/common/php/article.php#L25) using a file named `author` from the post's directory. This file should contain a single line with the author's name.
