Crossword #112 - "Elliptical, of Course"

A mini homage to one of my favorite books of short stories, of which I was recently reminded (pdf, applet, solution). The crossings are fair, I promise.

P.S. You can listen to Liev Schreiber read the first of the stories here (spoilers).

Cryptic #5 - A Lack of Color

Another cryptic -- why not? It's an adventure every time. As before, you can solve without wordplay hints (pdf, applet) or with them (pdf, applet). (The solution is the same.)

Crossword #111 - "Adapt, React, Readapt, Apt" (Themeless)

The stream of thoughts and "ideas" that went into the making of this puzzle (pdf, applet, solution) was ... uh ... less than coherent, let's say. The clues also trend a bit funky -- you've been warned <3

Crossword #110 - "What Is the 'Right' Direction?" (Themeless)

Unfortunately for you, my facility with language does not compare to Lauren Groff's (pdf, applet, solution).

Crossword #109 - All Sudsed Up and Nowhere to Go

This puzzle (pdf, applet, solution) is another I've had sitting around for far too long. Best solved while taking a bath -- or shortly thereafter, if you find that impractical.

Spiral #14 - "Don't Delay!"

Things are spiraling out of control again (pdf, solution) -- but hopefully in a fun way.

Crossword #108 - Octopus Ink (Themeless)

Another themeless puzzle for you this weekend (pdf, applet, solution) -- hope you enjoy!
