Mr. Glatch, You authored "The Art Of MOPAR" with a Dodge Charger shown on the front of said book. My question, what color is the paint on the car shown on that book's cover? I wish to paint a Dodge that same color but cannot find paint code. People tell me it's just a made up color for that photo. If that's the case, there must be a paint code for it. Can you tell me the code please? mandmkiwi@charter.net
Tom Glatch Code LL1 Medium Turquoise Metallic Paint! It was a fairly rare color back then. Hope this helps!

Where did you get the idea for your most recent book?
Tom Glatch For me, projects have always been a collaboration. Typically, an editor will come to me with a project idea, which I then take and add my own touches. That was the case with the book I am finishing this summer. Other times I'll have an idea that I submit to one of my editors. After over thirty years I have a nice network of editors to collaborate with!

How do you get inspired to write?

How do you deal with writer’s block?
Tom Glatch I typically walk away from a project for a day or two, although I'm blessed with rarely having what most people think of "writer's block." Sometimes a title or theme is difficult to come by, but the actual text usually flows once my research is complete -- but the research has to be complete. Then the pieces of the puzzle fall into place. And I often come up with those elusive titles while in the shower or while sleeping!
