Why don't you use save?
>> save article
will write the object to a file. Later you can read or load it back. In
either case you will have to either do the result of reading the file, to
convert the string (read) or block (load) to an object:
retrieved-article: do read %article.txt
retrieved-article: do load %article.txt
Another option is to use
>> write filename mold object
Same result as saving the object.
