Yes, *always* work with the .story file on your local hard drive. Any work that involves an internet connection could encounter minor disruptions that results in major corruption.
Years ago, I also had an early Super Hero tell me to always close my .story file before I took a break. Or, rather, before my PC took a break and went to sleep. I don't know if the sleep/wake process could still impact a file, but I still follow his advice.
And it doesn't hurt to develop the habit of backing up the file after each work session, whether that's in the cloud, on a SharePoint site, and/or on a flash drive.
Best wishes!
