12 or 20 (small press) questions (third series):

Originally conducted by rob mclennan and (briefly) Lisa Pasold, and continued by mclennan, this new series of “12 or 20 questions” (originally based on mclennan’s own first and second series of interviews with writers) is a response to a conversation between mclennan (founder/coordinator of the ottawa small press book fair) and Pasold (then-current co-coordinator of the Toronto Small Press Fair) after the fall 2009 edition of the Toronto fair, held at the Gladstone Hotel. Over drinks, the two colluded to work a series of interviews with purveyors of small and micro-press, whether chapbook or book publishers, or editors/publishers of magazines, journals or zines. Much thanks to the Gladstone Hotel, who originally provided drinks and the opportunity, and Open Book Toronto, where a couple of these pieces have been featured.
