Whirlwind #2

Today's puzzle is brought to you by the letter...me! Wait, I am a letter? I is a letter, but I am going off on a silly tangent. Enjoy the puzzle, before I lose all comprehensibility.

I think I've built up another buffer that should last me a month or two. Good thing, because I've had a lot of other puzzle-related projects clamoring for my attention.

Mini-March #1

Variety grid puzzle. Acknowledgements to Mike Shenk.

Since I've been in a rut trying to write some of the "hard" puzzles (e.g., Marching Bands, Some Assembly Required, variety cryptics) in the past few weeks, I decided to try writing Marching Bands puzzles with a smaller grid. The same rules still apply, but the grid is 11x11 rather than 13x13. Mini-March: now with 28% fewer letters!*

*As compared to regular Marching Bands

Spiral #15

Variety grid puzzle

Last month, I mentioned doing a last-minute rewrite of Spiral #14. Well, as it turned out, I was able to turn it into two separate puzzles, each better (in my opinion) than the original. Sometimes these things work out to my advantage.

Pathfinder #5

Variety grid puzzle

When I said I had other kinds of puzzles in the pipeline, I meant it. It's just that…well, I'm still writing clues for a cryptic, I'm still gridding two Marching Bands puzzles, and I need to edit the Some Assembly Required for taste. If I had something else ready for prime time, I'd post it, but sadly, I don't.

Spiral #14

A bit late in the day, but still posted on Saturday. And given that I did a last-minute rewrite of the entire puzzle, I'm okay with that. Enjoy!
