My Special Days Dream or Destiny Promotion

June 1, 2009 by Lillie 

giftbagYesterday was our anniversary, and my birthday is later this month. My blog birthday is also in June. In celebration of my special days, I’m offering a gift to anyone who buys a copy of Dream or Destiny during the month of June.

I will e-mail you an e-book of Fern’s Fancies, an unpublished contemporary romance novel. It’s quite different from my other books, and I had fun writing it. I hope you have fun reading it. 

In addition to the free e-book, everyone who purchases Dream or Destiny during June  will have a chance to win a virtual gift basket of e-books. The titles of the books, which I either edited or wrote, are listed below.

Back cover blurb for Dream or Destiny:  

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?

You can learn more about Dream or Destiny, read an excerpt, or find out what reviewers say.

About Fern’s Fancies:

When Fern Tate sold her interior landscape company to a national corporation, she didn’t expect to have a boss like Pendleton Morgenthal, III. Had she made the biggest mistake of her life?

Pen never allowed a woman—especially a subordinate—to distract him from his fast-track career. What was it about Fern that made her different?

Read an excerpt of Fern’s Fancies.

I wrote this story early in my writing career in response to a call for submissions from a romance publisher for contemporary romance novels that began with a letter or other form of correspondence. I had just sold my interior landscape company and enjoying sharing some humorous incidents that we had encountered in 20 years in the business.

 I submitted part of the manuscript as homework in an online writing class, and the instructor predicted this book would be picked up by a publisher right away. However, when it was rejected by the publisher I targeted it for, I never tried again. Fern’s Fancies is genre romance, a la Harlequin or Silhouette Romance (the “sweet romance” lines).  It’s a light, fun, and sometimes humorous read.

At the end of the promotion, I will draw a name from all buyers for a virtual gift basket of e-books written by my clients (plus one of mine).

You may order from:

Although I don’t ordinarily sell direct, I want buyers during this promotion to be able to order an autographed copy. Click on the “buy-now” button at the bottom of this post to order through PayPal using your credit card or PayPal account. Price is $12.95 plus shipping ($3.00 US or $10.00 International). Please be sure to indicate the name you would like the autograph inscribed to.

For those of you who have Dream or Destiny on your wish list, now is the perfect time to order it. For those of you who have read and enjoyed the story, you can buy a gift for a friend and keep the free e-book for yourself. :-)

If you order from me, I will e-mail your free e-book at the time I prepare your paperback book for shipping. If you order from Amazon or GASLight, e-mail me your receipt, and I will send Fern’s Fancies by return e-mail.

Happy anniversary and happy birthday to me, and happy reading to you!

Blog Book Tour Stop: Second Visit to Father Jerry’s Jottings

December 5, 2008 by Lillie 

Today I’m back at Father Jerry’s Jottings with the conclusion of my two-part series on blogging: Blogging for Beginners. I’m sure most of my readers know everything I’ve covered in this introductory post, and I know you can add some tips I didn’t mention. Stop by Father Jerry’s blog and give your best advice to beginning bloggers.

Blog Book Tour at Light Within

December 4, 2008 by Lillie 

When Shirazi invited me to write a guest post about Dream or Destiny at Light Within, I confess I hesitated. Shirazi writes about blogging, business, Pakistan, and blogging in Pakistan. But Shirazi has also written a book and is a big fan of mystery fiction. After several e-mail exchanges, I was convinced that Light Within would be a good blog to add to my book tour.

I hope you enjoy my guest post Writing a Mystery: Dream or Destiny and hope you will give some encouragement to a blogger who is working hard to expand opportunities for writers and bloggers in Pakistan.

Blog Book Tour Stop at Word Sell

December 3, 2008 by Lillie 

Though I sometimes get in a hurry and don’t read all the blogs in my feed reader, I never miss Brad Shorr’s Word Sell. Brad covers blogging, copywriting, marketing, and social media on his blog. He’s also a Top 500 Reviewer at Amazon.com.

Although he reviews fiction at Amazon, he doesn’t normally cover fiction on his blog. So I was delighted when he invited me to visit Word Sell for an interview. His questions really made me think. I hope you’ll stop by Word Sell and ask your own questions if there’s anything Brad didn’t ask.

Blog Book Tour Visit to Father Jerry’s Jottings

December 2, 2008 by Lillie 

Today’s stop is a special treat for me. Father Jerry Sherbourne was my priest at All Saints Anglican Church before he joined the Army as a chaplain. I gave him a blog as a going-away gift, and he wasn’t quite sure what to do with this unexpected present. I describe his reaction in today’s guest post: Starting a Blog.

Though he was skeptical at first, Father Jerry is now an enthusiastic blogger, and he asked me to give some advice to his readers who are interested in starting their own blog. Stop by and say hi.

Blog Book Tour This Week

December 1, 2008 by Lillie 

After my recent three-week blog book tour, I decided I would make shorter tours in the future. This week, I’m taking a short tour with four stops. I hope you will visit the host blogs and comment. It’s a lot of work for a blogger to host a blog book tour stop, and I want my hosts to know they are appreciated.

The stops on this tour are at blogs that don’t focus primarily on books and writing. I’m excited about the opportunity to reach new readers through these blogs.

  • Tuesday, December 2
    • Father Jerry’s Jottings
    • Guest post: Starting a Blog
  • Wednesday, December 3
  • Thursday, December 4
    • Light Within
    • Guest post: Writing a Mystery: Dream or Destiny
  • Friday, December 5
    • Father Jerry’s Jottings
    • Guest post: Blogging for Beginners

I hope to see you at each of these tour stops.
