In talking about writing, objects are things that are not actions. They are perceived with the five senses of sight, hearing, touch, taste and smell. They are also perceived by feeling, thinking and remembering. While a rose is an object, a memory is an object also. You see a tree, so tree is an object. Your hear music, so music is an object and not the action spoken of in the remark. Objects are not the words about them.[1]
