Crossword Genius

Object of writing (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

article

I believe this is a double definition.

'object' is the first definition.

'writing' is the second definition.
(article is a kind of writing)

'of' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for article that I've seen before include "account in the Financial Times" , "Eg, a, an or the" , "Division" , "something" , "Object - piece of writing" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
