What does Clive like best – writing or painting?
– Clive has been writing and painting since he was very young and he loves to do both, but at different times of the day. During the daytime he writes in his study, and in the evening he goes down to his studio to paint. Does Clive have any pets? – Yes – LOTS! He is very, very fond of his dogs, but he also has parrots (who noisily interrupt his phonecalls!) – one is called Malingo. He also has geckoes, fish and a cockatiel. Does Clive come from England? – Yes, he was born in Liverpool, England in 1952 but he has lived in Los Angeles since he moved to America in 1991. Recently he became an American citizen. Can I send you a drawing or a photo I’ve done that’s related to Abarat or Thief? – Sure! We’ve created a page for them here so send us your drawings or photos by e-mail and we’ll pick some to show to Clive and to the world! Does Clive really have a separate home to house all of his pets and artwork? – Clive has three houses – all next to each other – the first house has his offices a
