SOLUTION to last week's puzzle

Welcome back, solvers! It's been a few months since the last themeless; here's a puzzle to break the theme hegemony.

If this still doesn't satisfy your themeless fix, check out this erik agard collaboration. You know as well as I do that the man's a crossword wizard. Just look at that puzzle's 1-Across clue (which was all him) and let your jaw drop.

Anyway, enjoy the puzzle!

SOLUTION to last week's puzzle

Hello! Late puzzle, but better late than never.

This is a puzzle from the "write what you know" division. Last Friday, I played in a showcase for my school's improv team for the first time. Long story short, it was insanely rewarding, I loved it, and I would do it again in a heartbeat. So, here's a puzzle based on that, titled after the golden rule of improv.

Hope you enjoy!

PUZZLE #20: Steep Descent

SOLUTION to last week's puzzle

Hello again, solvers!

First: to bring closure to the story arc introduced in the posts for puzzles #17 and #18, I am pleased to announce that I have finally finished the second season of "Stranger Things." I'm still emotionally drained after that finale, but I won't burden you with that. (but also WOW what an episode)

About the puzzle: wackadoodle theme, but what is the vibe of this site if not "wackadoodle." Puzzles like this really demonstrate why I'm liking the freedom of indie crossword construction-- you'll see why when you solve it.

Hope you enjoy!
