What are the signature techniques Meredith Masony uses in her book signing events?

At signings, Meredith leans hard into connection and comedy more than “formal author mode.” A few signature things tend to show up:

• Storytime vibe – she often reads a funny or heartfelt passage (like previews she’s shared for Ask Me What’s for Dinner One More Time) and riffs off it.
• Girls’-night energy – she invites people to “grab your girls,” laugh, and make it a night out, not just a quick autograph.
• Personal interaction – staying to chat, take photos, and make each reader feel seen is a big priority.

Are you going to a signing and wondering what to expect or how to prep something special for her to sign?
