New Novel Released: Dream or Destiny
September 26, 2008 by Lillie
Finally, my new novel, Dream or Destiny, has been released as an e-book. When you order an e-book from GASLight Publishing, LLC, you receive a zip file that contains four e-book formats: PDF (which you can read in Adobe Acrobat), HTML (which you can read in your Web browser, whether or not you are connected to the Internet), Word .doc (which you can read in your word processor) and text (which you can read on your computer or in many e-book reading devices).
The print version will be available October 18th.
You can read an excerpt in a free PDF download.
I’m planning a blog book tour when the paperback edition is released. If you would like to host me on one of my tour stops, please contact me by e-mail or leave a comment below.
Here’s the back cover blurb:
Marilee Anderson dreams about a murder and wakes to find it really happened. She and David Nichols, the victim’s brother, become the prime suspects. Though they have their secrets and aren’t sure they can trust each other, Marilee and David team up to find the killer.
Does Tess, “the crazy lady,” know anything about the murder or is she just delusional? Does the cheating couple on the victim’s floor have any information about the night of the crime? Why has the abusive father of the victim and her brother suddenly reappeared? What about Barbara’s ex-husband? Will Marilee and David find the killer? Or will they end up in jail—or dead?
“Lillie Ammann’s unique talent brings her characters to life in this tension filled suspense. From the first paragraph she’ll have your heart racing as Marilee’s nightmare takes over her life and changes it forever.” ~ Diana Lesire Brandmeyer, author of A Time to Dance
“Lillie Ammann has written more than a book about two people trying to solve a crime. She delves into the effects of grief and guilt, attraction and suspicion, compassion and evil. “ ~ Helen Ginger, Freelance editor, book consultant, writer, and speaker
Same here, Lillie!
I love a good thriller. This book sounds like it is full of suspense, which I love too. I’ll have to check it out.

Jeanne,
There’s so much to do to promote a new book. I’ve updated my Web site/blog, I’m planning a book launch party locally, and I’m putting the blog book tour together. It’s all fun and exciting … but I have to do a little work for clients so I can pay for all this fun!
las vegas,
I think you will find Dream or Destiny is filled with suspense, she said modestly.
As exciting as a book launch is…alas, one can’t forget one’s clients — or one’s income! Hope, though, that when all is said and done, your book will add significantly to that income (as well as that client list)!
Thanks, Jeanne. I really love my clients, but right now I’m having fun with the book launch.
That’s certainly understandable, Lillie!
Jeanne,
I had some signings in bookstores that sold CDs but didn’t really have a chance to do everything I’m doing now. So this is a new and exciting experience for me.
My first novel was released quickly back in the early days of e-publishing; I knew nothing about book promotion; it was released as an e-book—not paperback; and blog book tours hadn’t been invented then.
We always learn as we go, don’t we? It’s great that you have so many more options for promoting your book today than you did then! That’s progress!
Yes, Jeanne, it’s a whole different world.
