Friday Photo Sketch: Ondaatje at the Ottawa International Writers Festival

This week’s Friday … um, image … comes courtesy of photographer John W. MacDonald, who attended Michael Ondaatje’s recent appearance at the Ottawa International Writers Festival, only to be told that photos were strictly verboten during the event. So MacDonald sketched the author instead. Read MacDonald’s account of the evening here. He plans to auction off the sketch to the highest bidder.

Have you recently attended a book reading, library event, or author appearance? Have some interesting book-related pictures you want to share? If you’ve got photos of the Canadian book scene, we’d love to see them. Send them to us or sign up through Flickr and submit your images.
