Stop reading if you don't want any hints. This is a puzzle in the vain of a Thursday NYT puzzle. It's only one trick executed four...

Brief introduction today as the right 1/3 of my laptop screen has gone dark. I'm doing my best to get this week's puzzle up and face the...

I'm on vacation this week in the Outer Banks (Duck). My family has been renting a house here for the past 3 years, so it's becoming a...

Any excuse to use a Taylor Swift clue and I'll probably do it, which really worked out well for the reveal phrase in this puzzle. I kind...

I think this phrase lends itself to being interpreted for puzzle purposes. I'm also aware, via The Morning Show, that some people may...

This puzzle was built around 14-across. The original has been my favorite Taylor Swift song for many years so I wanted to include it in a...

I created this puzzle right when I created an earlier puzzle that also involved countries. Countries seem to lend themselves to a lot of...

The reveal on this is 14-letters, which can present more difficulties setting up the grid. I think this one works out well, with good...

I worked on this one for a while with some different reveal phrases as opposed to a single word. I probably could have reworked it with...

100 puzzles! Like most people I just love my round numbers so this puzzle is much more important than puzzle 99 or 101. I know it doesn't...

As I was preparing to write this my opening line was "I'm sure this has been used as a reveal phrase before" so I searched Cruciverb. (I...

If it hasn't been demonstrated by my cluing references, Avatar: The Last Airbender is one of my favorite shows. I think I just completed...

I want to say I thought of doing something like this while doing a Sporcle quiz to name all the countries of the world but who knows. I...

It's been a long time since I published a themeless puzzle. I've mostly been creating themed puzzles and haven't dedicated much time to...

I was supposed to publish a themeless puzzle this week but when I realized it was MLB opening week I audibled. I threw together this...
