Colors and Pattern Master List

Comparisons in a story help create a visual image for readers. If you choose the right comparison, the reader will have an emotional connection with the character while they read.

The purpose of this master list is to help you find the right color or pattern to use in your story. This list is an ongoing list with links to pages and references to tell you how to use them throughout your story. If you would like to add anything to this list, please lead it in the comments and if we add it to the list, we will give you credit.
