Color Your World is a series of posts to provide lists of synonyms for different colors. All too often authors and writers resort to using the same word for a color repeatedly in their writing, leading to a sometimes boring redundancy which can lend itself to making the story uninteresting at worst and ho-hum at best. This blog series will give you more options to choose from to keep your color references fresh and inviting.
This week we'll address the color Grey...and yes there is more than one shade and NO the number is not 50.
According to Color-meanings.com, Grey is the color of compromise, neutrality, control and practicality. You can also visit the site and see samples of what each shade looks like.
