Sometimes, a source of inspiration for that next big story could come from the most ordinary everyday things! 'Object Inspiration' writing competitions are all about taking a small object, item or photo and writing a story about it.
For this month's writing comp, we're in the world of Obernewtyn:
pick an object in your room. The teknoguilders have just uncovered it during one of their excavations.Submission SuggestionsSome questions to think about:
- What could the Teknoguilders be thinking of the object?

- What time is it?
- What is happening?
- What is the mood of the story?
