FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Ringgold, Georgia - A recent alert sent out by American Family Association (AFA) about Mrs. Fields Cookies removing Christmas products from their line spurred 73,000 emails to Mrs. Fields insisting the company bring back Christmas. Whether the entire affair was caused by an outsourced customer service representative speaking from her own opinion, matters very little. The fact remains that Christmas is not only commercial but also controversial.

Marnie Pehrson, author of the Christmas story Miss Humbug, has set out to take positive action to share the true meaning of Christmas by giving away free copies of the ebook version to site visitors. In the novel, high powered marketing executive Elaina Houston would rather work than celebrate. Not only is Christmas a complete waste of time and money in her opinion, but also it brings with it haunting memories that drive Elaina further into her frigid shell. Work is the only answer, but she's surrounded by coworkers who bask in the holiday glow, constantly reminding her of painful memories from Christmases gone by.

Then one night, a week before Christmas, her past comes back to haunt her, and she's given an ultimatum. Either she learns the Spirit of Christmas or she won't live to see another December 25th.

"The book is about one woman's quest to understand and implement the time-tested values that Christmas symbolizes - generosity, love, human-kindness, and peace." says Pehrson, author of over a dozen fiction and nonfiction inspirational titles. "The way I see it, we have two choices. We can throw away the symbol because it has become corrupt or we can restore it to its former greatness. Some say we should eliminate Christmas because a few might be offended. Others say to abolish it because it has become corrupt. But what if we could restore it? Would any find offense at the original icon? I've never met anyone who's offended by peace, love, unity, and generosity. I'm sure there are some people out there who live in diametric opposition to these principles. But do we want to cater to them as a society? Do we want to foster the antithesis of these principles? I think not. "

"Along with Elaina, I hope readers will come away understanding that it's the small and simple things that bring great things to pass. It's not the gizmos and gifts or tinsel and trees that make Christmas so influential. It's those Christ-like values that illuminate a darkening world. We need them now more than ever!" concludes Pehrson.

"Miss Humbug" is available as an ebook at www.MissHumbug.com. Those who spread the Christmas cheer by referring others to the site can also receive it in audio format. The paperback version is also available on the site or through Amazon or BarnesAndNoble.com. Marnie Pehrson may be reached for comment at marnie@misshumbug.com or 706-866-2295.
