Simple Python Logger Here is a simple Python logger I would like some general feedback on.
Features:

Dynamically creates log folder and files wherever user runs the program
Abillity to create multiple logs from a single program
Names logs from time stamp to the latest second preventing name conflicts

I understand there may be far better alternatives to this but I just wanted to tinker around with this concept a bit!
Thank you!
logger.py:
#!/usr/bin/python
# -*- coding: utf-8 -*-

import datetime
import time
import os
import sys

# get user's current directory

directory = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__)) + '/logs'


def createNewLog():

    # ensure log folder exists

    if not os.path.exists(directory):
        os.mkdir(directory)

    # get timestamp for naming the log

    timeInSeconds = time.time()
    timestamp = \
        datetime.datetime.fromtimestamp(timeInSeconds).strftime('%Y-%m-%d %H:%M:%S'
            )

    logFile = directory + '/' + timestamp + '.txt'
    mostRecentLog = directory + '/mostRecentLog.txt'

    # create log file and file with the log file's name

    with open(logFile, 'w') as log:
        with open(mostRecentLog, 'w') as recentLog:
            recentLog.write(timestamp)


def findMostRecentLog():

    # ensure logger has been intiated

    try:
        with open(directory + '/mostRecentLog.txt', 'r') as logFile:
            logName = logFile.read()
    except FileNotFoundError:

        print(&quot;Must initiate logger first!&quot;)
        sys.exit(1)

    return directory + '/' + logName + '.txt'


def log(comment):
    comment = str(comment)

    # write to log file retriving most recent log from corresponding file

    with open(findMostRecentLog(), 'a') as log:
        log.write(comment + '\n')
In case you do not know it yet, I suggest you to use pylint to parse your code and have automatic feedbacks. In fact some of my notes come from pylint.

Styling notes:


Constant names like var "directory" require uppercase style PEP8
Function and variable names require snake_case style PEP8
Functions require docstring, as well as the module itself PEP8

    comment = str(comment)

    # NOTE: this dependency will make hard testing this function alone.
