mclennan article ‘misleading’
I find your writer’s portrait of rob mclennan (Oct. 12 ) strangely lacking — if not misleading.
rob mclennan has done a great deal to anger and upset some writers and observers in Ottawa’s literary scene and beyond. All you had to do was either talk to people at the TREE Reading Series (which mclennan still frequents, though his involvement as an organizer ended in 1994) or dig back through some local newspapers.
