Frank Settineri asked Amanda Larkman:

Wow! You observed something and wrote a novel around it, just like Steven King who saw an old car behind a diner and wrote a novel about it. I read about a paint so black it absorbs almost all the light and wondered what would happen if it absorbed enough to become a black hole? I wrote The Phantom based upon that thought. Thanks so much for your insight. How do you find the time to write and when do you write?

Amanda Larkman I’ve heard of that paint! Good idea for a story. I write late at night and during the holidays.
