A Christmas Carol Book Competition

Charles Dickens 'A Christmas Carol' brought into the 21st Century by Cuger Brant. To me, the original story by Charles Dickens 'A Christmas Carol' encapsulates a ghost story, a sci-fi story and a moral. It 'hits a chord' so to speak, with m

Cuger Brant Book competition: Tunbridge Wells.

Cuger Brant has staked a £100:00 of his own money to make you read and learn the importance of morality and humility.

Read his book 'A Christmas Carol' to find the eight clues.

When asked by a local newspaper what his aim was, he said: "To teach T-Wellians that there is more to Christmas than: I want, I need, and I must have! If I can just save one soul from the hedonistic enterprise of society and give real meaning to what life really means I will be happy!"

This applies NOT just to Royal Tunbridge Wells residents; but to everyone and anyone on the internet worldwide.
He is giving the money collected to a needy family in Tunbridge Wells.

To enter: Download his E-book; do the research on Royal Tunbridge Wells; then solve the clues with the questions put on twitter on December first.

The competition ends on the 24th of December. The winner will be announced Christmas Day!

The Rules: Humility.

He said;
"Why 'Art' is always supposed to be perceived as images through the eye puzzles me. Art is giving the mind a concept; in the mind; or a concept to the mind's eye. I am an artist and my canvass is projecting concepts through the written word.

As far as i am concerned; I am a philosophic psychologist with a twist of comedy.
As far as you are concerned; I am either a madman or have a point. Well... is that not art?

I write 'WHAT IF?' stories. I write them to stretch your imagination and your awareness. I hope they give you pleasure, food for thought and change your perception about you, your world, and your safe little place in it!

My writing style and method may seem different to you. I have read (in numerous cases, tried to read) so many books, only to be sent to sleep or put off by over descriptive meandering that, when analysed, really has nothing to do with the story or the plot, rather just to do with the author's imaginings of his literal, descriptive skills, even to do with 'bulking' a book out a bit.
Both I and other avid readers I know personally tend to get very vexed with these 'over-stretched books' telling me nothing and just wasting my time.

My philosophy is: if you give a man who can read music a Stradivarius, it doesn't mean that you will get a good tune. But if that man has a seed of inspiration to explore and a need to express his inspiration through his music, then you have something worth listening to.

Writing, to my mind, is always an opportunity to educate the reader.
It is also for me, personally, an art of imagination, an opportunity for expression and concepts.

I believe it is how the imagination and a few words are used to capture an idea, then to project that idea to a reader, to get an inquisitive mind working and in doing, stopping that inquisitive mind dismissing a concept, an idea, and putting down an unread book. If I have done just that, then I feel have created something!

I sincerely hope if you read my books, they were not what you were expecting!

Author Note: A word about my writing, facts and study material:

Trust me when I say; "I get all my facts right before I put pen to paper. It gives me the privilege to distort them as much as I please with a clear conscience."

So download 'A Christmas Carol' by Cuger Brant on your E-reader and have some fun!!

And if you are as clever as he thinks you are; win some money!
