Save, resume and back up your publication
A conversation is a workspace. Your library is where you deliberately keep the draft, references and files you want to return to.
Know what a draft contains
A saved draft stores project memory: text, outlines, decisions and next steps. A saved material stores file bytes, such as a photograph, illustration or PDF. Saving one does not automatically save the other.
Make saves explicit
Ask to save the current draft or selected material to a named project. Wait for the success result and version number or file receipt. If a transfer fails, do not assume the file is safe: reopen the library and check.
Resume with the latest state
In a new conversation, ask AI Publishing to list your projects and open the one you want. Review the stored memory and materials before editing. If two sessions edit at once, a version conflict asks you to reopen rather than silently overwrite work.
Use history deliberately
Restoring an older draft creates a new revision; it does not erase later history. Material files are managed separately, so restoring text does not restore a file you permanently deleted.
Keep an independent backup
Each free project expires thirty days after creation; editing does not restart the clock. Download your materials and export your project data before expiry. Signed download links last five minutes and can be renewed by reopening the library.
