The Real Clive Barker

Once asked by an interviewer what he wanted (besides his name) on his tombstone, Clive Barker replied 'Imaginer'. Imagination is the force that brings his work as a painter into being and the fuel that sustains the creative process.

Dear Clive, Many MANY years ago - around about 92 - I had the pleasure of having lunch with you at SDCC. I can't recall why or how, or who the glue that bound us was, but I recall you were an enigmatic, delighted, bright-eyed ball of exhuberance. I had had a relatively minor hit with Marvel UK and Death Head II, and was thrilled - as a fan - to hear your stories. You were clearly loving being involved in films, riding high on the success of your books. Nick Vince, my colleague at the time, had thrilled me with tales of chattering Cenobites and moon-faced Midians - later on I was offered a job by Bob Kean at Image Imagination - which I sadly had to turn down. There had, in short, been several links I shared with you. And I also recall I had been completely tongue-tied and incoherent when I finally met you face to face.
So, many years later, I wanted to say thank you. Thank you for the inspiration. For vision. For eloquence in fear, beauty in horror, magic in the darkness. You inspired my one published novel so far considerably (we share the same agent! Another link!) Thank you for the doors you nudged open, and for being fearless in what you committed to paper.
Very warmest regards,
Liam.
