Hodgsons first published short story was The Goddess of Death published in 1904. In 1907 he produced his first full-length novel The Boats of Glen Carrig. He wrote many tales inspired by his time at sea, such as the Sargasso Sea Stories, which included titles such as From the Tideless Sea (1907) and The Finding of the Graiken (1913).
