A quick message

Hi and welcome to my website.

It's been a busy year so far and there's loads of new stuff - starting with the web site design itself. I wanted a more upbeat experience for everyone out there and what you're looking at now is the next stage in my online evolution. All of the old favourites are still here plus there's loads of links and freebies, links to social media etc.

Other great news - After a long gestation period I now have some 40 plus free downloads of stories old and new available, plus two novels. Go to the Books page for more information on how to find all this free stuff, including an absolutely free and full copy of my new novel, Acts of Faith.


Why is everything free?

I've thought long and hard about this... and the conclusion I've come to is that it's all about presence.

Despite some years of success in competition and with magazines and online publishers, I've still got a pile of rejections from the mainstream industry. My stories and books have good reviews and have received positive editorial for years now, all of which leads me to think that our industry is a little screwed at the moment.

So, rather than flog a dead horse I've decided to go purely online, to resurrect good old Dickensian serialisation, and to make my stories absolutely free across as many platforms and sites as I can. By concentrating on creating presence and by building a download audience, I'll find a way to make a living out of all this imagination and graft.

Review by: C.J. Schmidt, Smashwords, on Sep. 15, 2012. Devil in the Detail:
If you could only read one of Clive Gilson's short stories this would be the one. His stories, even when loosely based on Anderson or brothers Grimm, are truly imaginative and always leave me wishing for more. Thank you for the free read!
