Deb Amlen among others is so passionate in how she explains the themes and quirks of each puzzle it’s just so charming and fun. And it’s not behind a paywall!

An article in the New Yorker published in 2021, Anna is a journalist and crossword complier and she seems really cool - the article details her coping mechanisms of anorexia and making crossword puzzles.
made me realise I know nothing about the social and political power of crossword puzzles!

I live and die by the comfort of the NYT crossword app, yes you have to pay for the full sized crossword, but life is silly so why not be silly with it. I pull it out at solo dinners, planes, drinks, coffee, whatever. Enjoyment may vary.

The success of my day primarily relies on how well (or more often than not, badly) I do on my crossword. At the moment I am loving the NYT app on my phone - it also offers a more accessible ‘mini’ crossword, as well as the wordle.
However, now and again I’ll buy a copy of the New Yorker, flip straight to the last page, and do a physical crossword over an oat milk flat white - my slice of paradise 🥰
