INTERVIEW WITH DAVIS AUJOURD'HUI, Author of The Misadventures of Sister Mary Olga Fortitude
Instinct - Sister Mary Olga sounds like our kind of girl, with all the boozing, smoking and straight talk. Where did the idea for her come from?
Davis - Sister Mary Olga and all of the zany characters in Bucksnort popped out of my imagination, one at a time, about ten years ago. At that time I was a social... Read more of this blog post »

The Misadventures of Sister Mary Olga Fortitude
(Humor)

Description:
Get ready for the funniest book of the year! This is the first in a series of irreverent and bawdy religious satires that will tickle your funny bone.
Sister Mary Olga is a bourbon-swilling, chain-smoking nun who's always getting into trouble with the Reverend Mother, a reformed prostitute. The convent's chef is a gay cowboy. Just watch out for the nasty town busybody named Priscilla Bunhead who is always digging in the dirt. There's plenty of that for her to find on Dinkledorf Drive in the fictional town of Bucksnort, Wisconsin. There's a lot of hanky panky going on there!
All of the book's other zany characters are delightfully flawed and the scenarios are outrageous. You'll discover the secret of a transgendered nun under the most unlikely circumstances. You may have never discovered a body in the process of cremation as you tried to bake a cake or bore offspring who made inappropriate digestive noises while playing Baby Jesus in the annual Christmas pageant. Yet you will be able to relate to the human foibles discussed by Sister Mary Olga.
Sister Mary Olga takes the attitude of "to each one's own." She pokes fun at the conservative religious and social attitudes of the day. Yet the book has an underlying spiritual message; that is to lighten up and not take life so seriously.
