JILL Duggar has announced major career news after her family snubbed her upon revealing the upcoming release of her new memoir.
The TLC star is preparing to drop her tell-all, Counting the Cost, with her husband, Derick Dillard, 34, in September.

Ahead of the book's launch, Jill, 32, shared in an Instagram post that she completed the recording for its audio version.
She posted a snap of herself in the recording booth, wearing headphones while sitting in front of a microphone.
The reality star appeared to be in full recording mode with her tablet and laptop beside her.
Jill gushed over the project in her caption: "It’s been a full week! We did a thing…the audiobook is finally recorded!

"I’m so grateful to everyone who helped make this happen…from childcare in and out of the studio + all the other help, prayers and support! Thanks so much!"
Jill initially shared the news about her new memoir on social media following the release of the Amazon Prime Video documentary Shiny Happy People, which exposed the cult-life belief system of the Duggar family.
The mom of three has been vocal about having opposing religious views from her parents, Jim Bob, 57, and Michelle, 56, and raises her children much differently than how she grew up.
And her book promises more of an in-depth look into her painful upbringing, abiding by her family's strict conservative rules and being filmed for their reality TV shows.

COUNTING THE COST
Jill wrote in her Instagram caption when announcing the memoir: "Derick and I would like to announce that we have written a book, 'COUNTING THE COST.'
"As the picture on the cover conveys, the book is meant to reflect a story that has been difficult, yet hopeful."
The 19 Kids and Counting alum went on: "The challenges we have faced, including lack of respect for boundaries, greed, manipulation, and betrayal, are not that much different than what many people in our audience have faced. However, 15+ years of reality television, undergirded by secrecy and lies, is tantamount to pouring gasoline on the fire of our struggle.
"Thanks to time, tears, truth, and therapy, God has begun to heal our wounds into scars. Though we would have never chosen this path, and it has cost us dearly, we want to use our voice to show others that there is hope beyond the pain."
Her cousin, Amy Duggar, 36, who also appeared in Shiny Happy People, was the only family member to share their support in the comments.
SIBLINGS' FEUD?
Jill's 18 siblings, including her sister, Jinger, 29 - who released her own tell-all, Becoming Free Indeed, in January - ignored the post.
However, Jinger's husband, Jeremy Vuolo, 35, later showed no bad blood between the siblings by commenting on a post referencing the new book.
The former soccer player simply wrote: "Love you guys!!" garnering likes from over 200 fans who were happy to see the family is on good terms.
