[Python] Python - Attempting to create a new file in a existing folder but im recieving...

My goal is to create a new file in an existing folder and add data to it but I am receiving the filenotfound error because the open function is unable to read my new file. Here is the code below:

content = ["eat", "drink","sleep"]
filenames = ["todo1.txt","todo2.txt","todo3.txt"]

for stuff,filename in zip(content, filenames):
file = open(f"files\{filename}", "w")
file.writelines(stuff)


I am recieving this error:

C:\Users\verma\PycharmProjects\PythonProject\bonus experiments\bonus5.py:5: SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '\{'
file = open(f"files\{filename}", "w")
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "C:\Users\verma\PycharmProjects\PythonProject\bonus experiments\bonus5.py", line 5, in <module>
file = open(f"files\{filename}", "w")
C:\Users\verma\PycharmProjects\PythonProject\bonus experiments\bonus5.py:1: SyntaxWarning: invalid escape sequence '\{'
content = ["eat", "drink","sleep"]
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
FileNotFoundError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: 'files\\todo1.txt'


The filenotfound error is occuring due to the double backslash which i have not added but python considers it as an object in the f string. Please help me fix that.
