Growing Up Catholic Now The Longest Continuously In Print Catholic Book Since The Bible

Well, maybe that is a bit of an overstatement, but someone told me that Growing Up Catholic has now been in print continuously, without interruption, for 25 years! Nothing stays in print for 25 years! The Nuns Having Fun Calendars (co-authored by two of the Growing Up Catholic authors) will be entering their 8th year with more to come.

For all those Catholics who enjoyed them, God bless!

Let's Say Good-Bye To 2009...Early!

OKay, let's face it. 2009 is going to be a wash. Bailouts and layoffs. Bonus armies of Wall Street are marching and the little guy can't catch a break. Well, let's just forget it and dance...dance...dance our way to 2010 with Nuns Having Fun Wall Calendar 2010!

These calendars are some of the bestselling each year and we know why...because nuns are forever and as long generations of Catholics remember they will be held in our fond memory.

Until 2010 rolls around so might also want to see the book that started it all: Growing Up Catholic. In print continually since 1984...longer than any book except that encyclopedia and the Bible...and a couple others.

Also see the Nuns Having Fun book which grabs much of the great stuff from the many years of calendars along with new material. Say it loud...I think I am Catholic and I am proud!

America Has Spoken: Nuns Having Fun Is Recession Proof!

The Nuns Having Fun Calendar 2009 is well on its way to becoming a bestseller for the fifth straight year. Why? It's funny, it's tender, and it is a reasonable price for a great gift that gives 12 months long. The paperback book of best of the Nuns Having Fun Calendars called Nuns Having Fun (great title huh?) is also climbing the bestseller list and may take its place along with Growing Up Catholic the 25 year in print New York Times Bestseller by the same writers.

Don't fear the recession! The price is right for a stocking stuffer or office gift or just for someone you like (they don't have to know it didn't cost you an arm and a leg or a rapped knuckle.)

No Doubt: Meryl Streep Is The Greatest Actor Alive

La Streep has long been regarded
as the greatest actor of her time. In Doubt (adapted by John Patrick Shanely from his Pulitzer Prize Winning) she gets to play a nun. She has already played an angel of course.
