Clive Barker: Revelations


Personal Mail For Clive




...Clive has asked us to make public the following announcement:

My Dear Friends,

Over the past 20-plus years, it has been my pleasure to get to know many of you. But as I dive deeper into the Abarat books and paintings and of course, the projects at Seraphim, which continue to take flight, I have found it difficult to answer the hundreds of letters I receive. Itıs with immense regret that I'll no longer be able to reply personally to the mail sent to the PO Box in Los Angeles.

I must tell you that this decision has been very hard to take. I have received over the years so many moving and extraordinary letters, and I will miss the chance to answer them personally. But I only have so much time on the planet, and I hope youıll be happy with my choosing to spend more of it making stories and pictures for you.

There have been many occasions when letters from you have opened doors to friendships and creations that have changed my life. I donıt want to lose that vital connection with you, the most important people in my life. Please continue to make contact through Phil and Sarah's website, and yes, if you like, through letters. I believe that when the forces in our lives need to put us together, they will.

The word 'love' is used a lot in our culture, often in irrelevant places. But I want to send my love to you now, even though I don't know you by name. You know all of me - heart and soul - and itıs an honor and joy to make work that gives you pleasure. I promise to keep doing it.

My love to you,

Clive
