The yellow can be incidental to your story, the springboard for it or a major part of it.

Loads of things can be yellow:

Clothing – including hi-vis clothing, but also have a think about clothing that’s not normally yellow – like a suit or a raincoat. Unusual things intrigue us both as people and readers.

Food, animals, birds, fish (there’s even a yellow slug called a banana slug), plants and flowers, paint (both in the sense of decoration but also in art), cars, yellow lines on the road, flags, earplugs, packaging, highlighters, medicine…

Things that are ageing – yellowing paper…

When my parents first got an indoor bathroom suite – in the early 1970s – it was yellow, and I have a copy of Goodbye Yellow Brick Road on yellow vinyl.

Yellow is all around us.
