This has become my domain. I furnished the house in Southwestern furniture and Mexican folk art.
When people visit, I'm often asked who did the interior decorating. They seem genuinely surprised when
I say it was me. They can't believe that a fiction writer has taste or that my wife didn't have a strong hand
in it.
Barbara did, however, get her day in court. For her domain, she built a beautiful log house in Telluride
surrounded by aspens with an incredible view of the San Juan Mountains. Here I had no say except for
structural conversations with the contractor.
The home is entirely hers from the bottom floor to the top of the chimneys, comfortable, warm and
cozy. We have the best of both worlds, spending summers in Colorado and winters in Arizona.
Which brings me to one of the most frequent questions I'm asked: How can someone who writes sea
stories live in the mountains and the desert? The answer is that-I get my fix by working on the water
searching for shipwrecks at least one month out of the year.
CRAIG DIRGO:One last question. What's the best comment you've ever received on the books?
CLIVE CUSSLER:In the words of a lady journalist who did a review ofInca Gold , "Loren Smith is
the woman we all want to be, and Dirk Pitt is the man we all want."
The bottom line is that readers of all ages and both genders enjoy Pitt because there is a little of him in
all of us.
