We are excited to be releasing Puzzle #1 of the Boswords Fall Themeless League tomorrow night!

Thanks to all who have joined so far, and there's still time to join the fun! For more info, a short video explaining the Fall League, and to register, go to boswords.org.

As we move toward our fall subscription drive, we hope you’ll consider supporting us in part bc we are an independent media company.

No, crosswords are not as vital as journalism. But yes, all content that we consume matters, and it should be as free as possible from corporate control.

I had to write a puzzle for my newest stage of adulting. I feel you, Monica Geller!

Big thanks to Sally for asking me to work on this with her. Find out more about this collab on Sally’s awesome blog 🙌

@sallyhoelscher.bsky.social and I with today’s USA Today crossword. We’ll only swipe a bit of your time.

My USAT debut too!

I feel like I’m at the Oscars and I’m nominated in the same category as Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks. I’m almost tempted to write hashtag blessed… but I’ll spare you.

Put on your dancing shoes! Tonight we have an 11x12 puzzle by roster member Carina da Rosa (@carinadarosa.bsky.social) called "Sorry, Patrick Swayze, But I Put Baby in the Corner."

As I develop my crossword persona, I think it’s becoming a sassy ‘90s Disney princess.

Here’s my puzz today over at @puzzmo.com!

We're beyond thrilled to present puzzles by this fantastic set of constructors at the second Midwest Crossword Tournament, October 4, 2025 in Chicago! Read more about them and register now at midwestgridfest.com

Today we bring you the latest midi from roster member Carina da Rosa (@carinadarosa.bsky.social‬). It's a 13x11 titled "That's What She Said." We think you'll enjoy how this puzzle manages to be light-hearted and educational at the same time.

Don’t worry, I didn’t know what it was either. I’ll DM you!

Yassss, do it! We can search for wisdom together, ha. You should also join the Crosscord if you haven’t already

Thanks to Igor and the team for including me in their Apple fun (and being so lovely to work with). Baby’s first mini…

Dena and I have today’s crossword at @wsj.com (my debut with them!)

Thanks to the Lil AVCX team (and especially my mentor @sallyhoelscher.bsky.social) for this wicked cool opportunity. Cue the ABBA!

I’m so obsessed with this one. Been thinking about it all week!

That’s what counts—glad you enjoyed it!

Having my @puzzmo.com debut today (and my crossword debut) feels like my birthday. I’m gonna buy cake and Marie Antoinette this day up. Don’t worry, I won’t lose my head…

I can’t tell what makes me more excited: getting the opportunity to make crosswords or gaining all of these fab crossword friends. Or buying cake. All 3, obvi.
