You've reached the homepage of Cody Hatch (often known as Dakota Hatch). Are you looking for my university website?
I'm a 22-year-old university student (resume, photo). My special interests are computer programming, economics (particularly as it impacts on society), and international relations. My hobbies are mainly playing computer games and reading books, both sci-fi/fantasy and non-fiction. By way of example, recent books that I have enjoyed include David Weber's Honor Harrington series, and William Shirer's The Collapse of the Third Republic, a great study of the politics of France between the fall of Napoleon III and the end of World War II.
Although I used to try, I came to the conclusion that some people can write fiction, and some people can't, and that those in the second category (like myself), should definitely not try. I have, however, written a few essays on politics and society. I'm afraid I have a tendency to write in haste and edit rarely, so these should be treated very much as drafts. Further, it has been a while since I wrote some of these, and I may well now disagree with the opinions or positions expressed therein. As Lord Keynes once said: "When the facts change, I change my mind. What do you do, sir?"
I'm also experimenting with a weblog.
Feel free to drop me a line should you have any comments. I tend to argue my opinions strongly, but I'm also perfectly willing to change my mind.
