About Me

Craig Cliff
I am a writer of fiction, mostly.

My short story collection, A MAN MELTING, won the 2011 Commonwealth Writers Prize Best First Book.

My novel THE MANNEQUIN MAKERS was published in 2013 in Australia and New Zealand, a Romanian translation came out in 2016, the US edition came out at the end of 2017 and the UK edition dropped in 2019.

My latest book is NAILING DOWN THE SAINT, a novel about fatherhood, Hollywood and levitation (Vintage, August 2019).
