Clive Barker is my absolute favorite person to follow on twitter for so many reasons.

Being here is like standing with a group of wonderfully articulate people..Like a party I can go to without putting my pants on.

Or showering.

Am I the only one who tweets naked?

You people are the BEST1What a priceless flood of replies.Andyes,I’m typing this as the Creator made,using all eleven digits.

I only use my dick for the full stops.

Hello,my friends.Clive here.I’ve spent the day threading all the plot-lines of the last two ABARAT books into a map of Who,Where and When.

I have a lot of paintings that illuminate these creatures and events already finished ,but I think Ithere’s another hundred paintings…

…still to be created.The story has taken off into epic territory I had not dreamed of when I painted the first images of what would..

…would become Kaspar Wolfswinkel,the Mischief brothers and Princess Breath.Several hundred paintings later and I still need more.

There’s a lot of stories to conjure up in paint and words,but I’m alive to tell the tale.

That idea-being alive to tell the tale-never meant more than it does now,on the threshold of two huge books that almost lost their author.

Maybe there are thousands of tales out there that lost their authors before they could be written down….

…Desperate to remember themselves.Like us.
