As far as the actual organisation of the books (in the file system), I do it this way...

(Author) - (Series and # if applicable) - (Book title).prc

So if I'm looking at the complete list I get something like this...

...
Douglas Adams - Dirk Gently 01 - Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency.prc
Douglas Adams - Drik Gently 02 - The Long Dark Tea Time Of The Soul.prc
Douglas Adams - HGG 01 - The Hitchiker's Guide To The Galaxy.prc
Douglas Adams - HGG 02 - The Restaurant At The End Of The Universe.prc
Douglas Preston - Impact.prc
Frederick Forsyth - The Day Of The Jackal.prc
Frederick Forsyth - The Odessa File.prc
...

*** your ebook files can be renamed to this sort of format, without it changing the metadata ofcourse, and can be done while connected to a computer using the Explorer/Finder standard method of course***

You can separate your books by using subfolders within the (Kindle drive letter):\documents\ folder, but they are just for organising and don't have anything to do with collections.... whereas a folder within a (Kindle drive letter):\pictures\ folder is how you organise your photos because each sub folder will become a photo album.
