When lions cross (ft. Brooke Husic)

I was in the studio laying down the tracks for this new puzzle and it was tight, but I knew it needed that something something to push it over the edge, so I called up Brooke and was like “wanna do a guest verse?” and she was like “I’m in” and before I know it she’s rolling up in this limo with her usual entourage and she glides into the booth and starts dropping her smooth fill and her funky clues, BAM BAM BAM, all in one take, and when she’s done I’m like “daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaang” but before I get the word out she’s already back in the limo heading off to her next gig. LEGEND.

Hello hello! I hope you enjoy the puzzle. This one is not pretending to be an easy one. Thanks to Brooke Husic and Christopher Adams for test driving this one; both gave excellent feedback, and the puzzle is a little less obnoxious thanks to them — well, and a little more obnoxious — OK, let’s say it’s more obnoxious in good ways, you know? Let’s hope so. Enjoy!

A nice 11x11 for you on this fine day. Thanks to Will for test driving it, who says it’s one of my easier ones. Phew. I will learn how to make an easy puzzle someday. Anyway, enjoy this (and then go do some of Will’s puzzles).

Liquid liquid

After last week’s hard puzzle, I thought I would make this week’s easy. Except for the longer answers. Uh, let me know if I succeeded!

Lately I’ve been thinking about what makes a puzzle hard, but still fun. This puzzle is… probably hard. Hopefully it’s still fun.

Anyway the size and symmetry is an homage to Brooke, for obvious reasons.
