jpskewedthroneAs part of the promo for the After Hours: Tales From the Ur-bar release, I figured I’d highlight all of the contributors to the anthology individually. And while we’re at it, run a contest as well! So here’s the deal, to enter the contest you have to either friend the ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
afterhoursurbar community here on LiveJournal OR you have to like the After Hours: Tales From the Ur-bar Facebook page (search for the title of the anthology to find the page). If you do both, you’re entered into the contest twice! The contest will end March 31st, 2011. Prizes will include copies of the contributors books (sometimes entire trilogies), After Hours: Tales From the Ur-bar M&Ms, and perhaps other prizes. They will be awarded by random drawing from those who’ve liked or friended the appropriate pages. If you’ve already friended or liked the pages, then you’re already entered into the contest! Find out more about the anthology at its website: http://www.sff.net/people/benjamintate/afterhours/afterhours.html.
And now for the third contributor: Jennifer Dunne (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
jennifer_dunne)! Jennifer’s contribution to the anthology is the short story The Emperor’s New God, which uses the Ur-bar as the place for an illicit meeting between gods and men while in Venice. Here’s the official description:
"The Emperor’s New God" by Jennifer Dunne: The Holy Roman Emperor Otto secretly visits the Ur-Bar in order to pledge his allegiance to Mars, the God of War, but when Otto breaks the bargain he pays the ultimate price.
I’ve known Jennifer since meeting her and Patricia while working at the local Waldenbooks in Binghamton, NY. I was a wannabe writer and so they added me to their writers group meetings, both of them having already been published at the time. The group quickly degenerated into gaming and drinking nights, with a little critiquing getting done on the side. *grin* Here’s her author bio from the anthology:
Jennifer Dunne is the author of over fourteen fantasy and paranormal romances. While traveling in Italy last year, she fell in love with Venice, and the more she read about the city, the more she wondered. Why would one of the two most powerful men in the world at the time sneak into Venice in disguise, only announcing that he had been there after he was gone? What was he really hoping to accomplish? And, because she believes in happy endings, of course in her story, he gets one.
Jennifer’s books run more to the romance and adult side, as you can see from the covers, however we’ll be giving away Shadow Prince as one of the prizes in the contest.
