If nano says 'Error writing no such file or directory', could it be a permissions issue?

Yes, permissions are a very likely cause. If the directory exists but your user account doesn't have write privileges within it, nano will fail to write the file and report this error. Use `ls -ld ` to check permissions and `chmod` to adjust them if needed.
