That's correct.
The right way to do this is:
1. Create a directory with your functions in them, each with the same name as
the function. Call this ~/zsh_functions, for example. (The standard
zsh format is for only the body of the function to be in the file,
but if it's all surrounded by funcname() { ... } it will still work.)
2. In your ~/.zshenv, add
fpath=(~/zsh_functions $fpath)
autoload ~/zsh_functions/*(:t)
