STEVE LODGE
Author

Hello, I'm Steve lodge I was born in London in the late 60s and come from a typical loving working-class family I have an older sister and brother. I had a great childhood and was probably the last generation to enjoy the true freedom away from game consoles and mobiles. In the summer holidays, I was one of the kids out playing with my mates making camps and go karts out of old prams. I have a book of poems I'm working on about my childhood memories that I hope to be out soon. I remember i had to be in when the street lights came on. I struggled at school as my imagination was in overdrive but I could not express myself on paper. I found out late in life I had dyslexia which explains a lot, lucky it didn't affect my ability to read. My favourite book as a child was Charlie and the chocolate factory and at age 9 Star Wars came out this lead to my love of sci-fi all the usual suspects like Star Trek, Battlestar Galactica and of course comics Marvel, DC and  the great British icon 2000AD with Judge Dread. On leaving school I worked within the television and music industry for ten years then for the last 29 years I have been a London black cab driver. I have loved books and have a wide range from James Bond novels to poetry. Now I am writing my stuff (thanks to spell check) . I try to write from the heart, be that time travel or my poems . I hope you enjoy reading my ramblings just as much as I like writing them.
