A Ponderosa Christmas Carol (by Questfan)
Summary: My version of Charles Dickens’ famous story, as written for the 2016 BoNaNo Challenge. It doesn’t strictly follow the original story in style or detail, but rather borrows from the idea. Thank you to the fun group of writers who participated as it was the first time I have done anything like that.
