How to meet authors ~ Bishop Spong

I'm writing a series of posts to answer a question posed by Helen of Helen's Book Blog:

"How the heck do you meet all these authors? That's awesome!"

I'm posting this early to tell you I'm off to hear Episcopal Bishop John Shelby Spong this morning.  All day, actually.  He will be one more to add to my list of authors I've met.  It's all a matter of being willing to watch for appearances in town and then attending.

I've read several of his books, but don't have time right now to look up the titles for you.  More later.
