Clive Gilson


Biography

I've been writing since age 11 and had various shorts and pieces of poetry published over the years. I started writing longer fiction a couple of years ago and have even set up my own small publishing company in collaboration with other writers at The Write Factor.

I've also worked as a journalist and contributor to various magazines and newspapers, although I'm concentrating on fiction right now.

I'm looking forward to getting new work up and out into the wider world, and hopefully we'll get chance to share work, comments, feedback and all that...
