# Writer Default Metadata File
|
|
|
|
The `writer` Metadata File is used to dynamically create collections based on the most popular writers in your library.
|
|
|
|
Example Collections Created:

|
|
|

|
|

The below YAML in your config.yml will create the writer collections:
|
|
```yaml
|
|
libraries:
|
|
Movies:
|
|
metadata_path:
|
|
- pmm: writer
|
|
```
|
|
|
|

Below is a screenshot of the alternative `Rainier` style which can be set via template variables
