Martin T. Hodges discovered a talent for writing during the 1980s recession when a provincial Sunday tabloid in Great Britain offered him a column for thirteen weeks—it finally ran for the best part of two years. He’s been ‘guest of the day’ on local BBC radio to talk about his writing and some of his early efforts won encouragement from the playwright, Alan Bleasdale. Martin's career has moved through a series of radical changes from driving a truck to working in an academic library. As the Learning Centre Manager at the University of Southampton, his work included developing a multi-activity and multi-service environment to facilitate innovative educational developments; and designing and delivering a virtual information environment for students. Martin served two terms as editor of a University-funded ‘independent paper for comment’ and remains a member of the editorial board. He has had articles published in "Hampshire", the county magazine. and book reviews published in the journals "Education for Information" and "Managing Information." In 2006, he took early retirement to engage with the ‘real’ world once again. Martin now lives with his wife in rural Hampshire, England, occupying his time with reading, writing, reacquainting himself with his CD collection, walking and keeping up-to-speed with developments in the world of information.
