Just go into the library area in the college of winterhold. there should be an orc that says: "Idon't want you touching any of these books" or "Don't mess up these books". Something like that...

They are scattered all over Skyrim. Just keep an eye out for them in buildings!

I have the same problem, I looked in every shop in whiterun and riverwood I looked in every cabinet and searched everywhere in these two citys, even dragons reach the entire castle, cant seem to find any inkwells or quills anywhere.

Again I have looked in every shop, every house, even tried pickpocketing people to see if maybe they had any on them but still nothing. Got tons of paper though.

wow

Sneak into The Thalmor Embassy

in the whiterun building where the wizards room is located i have found some there

Best places to find these are in dungeons....on shelves. also u can find them all over skyrim like in libraries in buildings though u have to steal a few of them.....the thalmor embassy had a lot of em when i had the mission to infiltrate the embassy!!

You need to keep your eyes open because they are kind of rare... and inkwells are small and black and quills lie flat so for the most part they are easily missed. Look for them in places where people write - wizards' chambers, the desks in shops where the business leger is, libraries and so on. You can also get paper from cupboards and dressers but I don't remember seeing an inkell or quill yet.
