A fantastic virtual event programming idea in this political year is to pair Palmieri's remarks with a book signing of She Proclaims. It is technically easy to digitally queue guests up in a book signing line and give them a few minutes in conversation with the author, who then personalizes inscriptions on books or bookplates to be mailed to each participant after the event. Some hosts are finding that mailing the book in advance to participants merges the tangible with the intangible and generates anticipatory buzz for their event. Audiences consistently praise Palmieri with comments such as: Jennifer's speech was funny and inspiring. She gave our crowd exactly what they were looking for - men included. (Hoosier Women Forward)
