«[As for Clive Barker -- he spent virtually all day with his fans. First at an autograph session that went on far longer than it was scheduled to for the simple reason that the accomplished horror master took the time to converse with each and every fan like he was visiting with an old friend. Having interviewed Barker on a number of occasions I can attest to his warmth as an interview subject. On one occasion my cameraman was late due to traffic so Barker suggested we head down to the bar in the downtown Hilton Hotel for a drink where he proceeded to sign a copy of one of his books for me, not just sign it, but sketch an original piece of his unique artwork on the blank reverse side of the title page. Today he was cheerful and happy to be among his fans and readers.] I do love these events, ... It is a chance to interact in a direct and personal way. So when I do agree to attend such an event, I wholeheartedly throw myself headlong into it.»
Author: Clive Barker
