Hey, if you get stuck, don’t be afraid to reveal a letter.
The year in film
Everybody was celebrating the turn of the year by posting giant grids! I dunno, I’m in the mood for an economy-sized grid. Classic 5x5, maybe?
Hey, thank you all for playing my puzzles or watching my crossword streams or making great puzzles for me to solve or just being a part of a lovely community. It’s weird to have one nice thing to say about last year, but stumbling upon the Crossworld sure was nice. Happy new year, everybody!
Like 6-Down
A certain crosswording friend sure has put a lot of puzzles out recently! I even had a whole day of my crossword stream with nothing but her puzzles—including the NYTimes! But she announced that there would be no new puzzles from her appearing today. (But there might be another tomorrow?) OK, in this brief window, let me sneak a puzzle out…
An agreeable sound
Themelessish (with Brian Thomas)
Some puzzles have themes, and some puzzles don’t, and some puzzles are in a weird liminal place, like this one. Also, this was my first collaborative puzzle! It’s by me and Brian Thomas, whose puzzles can be found on Puzzles that Need a Home. Brian was a lot of fun to collaborate with, and definitely pushed me to find things I might not have looked for on my own. So yes, enjoy the puzzle, check out Brian’s back catalogue, and hang out with us on my daily crossword stream (11am Eastern, 8am Pacific).
