Happy Tuesday! I find it amazing that it's already the last Tuesday of November and that 2022 is quickly approaching. To think, it was almost a year ago today that I had only published my 4th crossword and now I’m here 91 of them later. As we’re approaching the 100th puzzle, I’ve finished the preliminary fill of the grid and I’ve started to make revisions. I can’t wait for all of you to play it.
Today’s crossword is a bit lopsided at 12x9 with standard symmetry. I have a couple of word play clues in there, but hopefully it won’t slow folks down too much.
