The Thrum Edition
Deep in the heart of Thrum this month you’ll find the heady talents of one of Helena Nelson’s Happenstance Press triumvirate, Niall Campbell (finally alongside Richie McCaffrey and Theresa Muñoz, who appeared in NLP earlier on in their careers) in his short collection for NLP – ‘Thrum’ – which would summon the hive to “rouse/ its husk into a thrum of nothing”. You’ll also see the beginnings of our Studio Series, created by visual arts editor (and artist) Claudia Massie, in which Santa Cruz printmaker Sarah Sanford invites us into her studio and takes us through the workings of her craft. Finally, Gourock-based artist and illustrator Wil Freeborn is interviewed by a wildly multi-tasking Claudia in a fascinating journey through his inspirations and his collaboration with Alasdair Gray.
