The colour purple

The reference highlights for me my serious, contemplative side...

 The Color Purple - the novel by Alice Walker.


I love that book. I read it again and again.I think the use of colour as a motif is one thing that informs and inspires my script-writing. The colour purple equated with suffering and pain - Sofia's swollen, beaten face. The beauty of a field full of purple flowers...


Yes...my contemplative side and now my very silly, superficial side.

Yesterday, I got a new Smartphone. Functional, valuable when I'm travelling and need to keep on top of emails and so on. But was I impressed by all the fancy-pantsy apps and facilities? Nope. I chose it because it was...


PURPLE!
