It's been a whirlwind of a weekend. I self-published on Friday, created this profile as well as a Facebook page, and am extremely humbled by the overwhelming show of support from family, friends and new readers!

Some quick housekeeping:

_Bloodlines_ can be found at the usual online vendors, but here's the link anyway: https://www.books2read.com/u/3L0LwN

My website, found at peterhartog.com, contains its own blog entitled Unpublished. I'll try to blog here, as well.

And, although it's Labor Day, I'm not resting on my laurels. Novel #2, the next "strange and unusual case" for the Empire City Special Crimes team, is already in the works.

Thanks to all of you who have taken the time to visit my website, read _Bloodlines_ and provided your feedback. Let me know what you liked about it, what you didn't like, your thoughts, theories and hopes for the characters and the story.

Whether you loved the novel or hated it, an author can only get better with the help of their readership. I look forward to journeying with you as we follow Doc, Leyla, Deacon and Besim (and a host of new characters!) throughout their misadventures in Empire City.
