about

them's crossing words started as a daily crossword review site (yep, another one of those) but grew into general puzzle topics as I started to get the hang of constructing my own grids. Nowadays I'm less critical towards the work of other constructors and prefer to wax poetic about the methods of crossword construction. This site is home to all of my puzzles and experiments.

I write about puzzles over on the txwords newsletter. Lately I've been solving lots of Puzzmo grids because they're Midi-sized and fit my Midi-attention span. I'm also trying to branch out into the world of cryptics.
