book signings
Meet the writer
Book signings are events where authors sign copies of their books for readers, typically held at bookstores, libraries, or literary festivals.
The author usually sits at a table, personalizes copies with inscriptions, and briefly chats with fans: She waited in line for two hours at the book signing.
Publishers arrange signings to promote new releases.
