THEMELESS MONDAY: [ ACROSS LITE][ PDF]
PROGRAMS: [Across Lite] [Adobe Reader]
For the roughly seven of you BEQ fans who are also cryptic lovers, I’d like to share a few puzzles with you. And by “a few puzzles,” what I really mean is the motherlode. Every single variety cryptic by Emily Cox and Henry Rathvon. Phew. I mean, that’s just Christmas in October or something. But yeah, if there’s a puzzle writer (or two) that I’ve done more puzzles by, I can’t think of who that might be. Moral is, get on that, will ya?
The other puzzle I wanted to mention was Sarah Goodchild’s lovely Halloween-themed cryptic for the Browser. Dan Feyer posted links to it here.
Those should keep you busy. And if they don’t, then there’s always today’s offering.
Looking for more puzzles? The Hub Crossword (Sunday puzzles by me and Joon Pahk) and Marching Bands year eight has begun. So if that To Do list needs even more puzzles, you know what to do.
Share the puzzle. New one on Thursday.
I didn’t — and still don’t — get 52A, but the cross words were fair. Fun puzzle — thanks, Brendan!
That Cox Rahtvon link… HOLY COW…. THANKS!!! 🥰

I would kill for a similar link to Emily Cox and Henry Rathvon’s acrostics. I still curse the day that the NY Times decided to drop the bi-weekly acrostics on Cox and Rathvon’s retirement. I’m sure they could have found an acrostic constructor that was almost as good.
