@susanna@bookstodon.com I'd say that the reading, and some amount of a backstory would probably be things that I've enjoyed. The one-on-one conversation probably depends somewhat on the way the author works, if there's hundreds of people who are wanting that, it's probably not that easy to do. But if it's a 20 people showing up at the reading/signing, some amount of one-on-one (more or less) (probably just casual standing about or whatever) makes sense.
