PUZZLE LINKS: iPuz file | Online Solver
Good news, everybody! Brooke Husic and Will Nediger, in collaboration with studio A24, have just released a book of 99 TV crosswords. They were nice enough to ask me to write a few puzzles for it, including one with a celebrity collaborator.
In celebration of the release, we’ve got a contest crossword for you (test-solved by Quiara — thanks, Q!). If you’ve never done one of these before, let me refer you to this how-to guide by Matt Gaffney. I’ll just add that Google is totally fair game, and likely necessary for this one. With that out of the way, here are the instructions for this puzzle:
The meta-answer to this puzzle is an HBO documentary on which my A24 collaborator served as executive producer. Send your solution to ****@crosswordnexus.com to be entered in a drawing for a puzzle subscription or puzzle pack.
The contest deadline is Tuesday, October 22nd at 11:59 PM pacific time. Good luck! And check out the book — it’s got a lot of clever TV-themed puzzles from some great constructors. Oh! and if you need more acrostic puzzles in your life, you can get them for just $1.50 per month at our Patreon.
fyi – I just tried to enter and the email I sent to the address above bounced back to me…
Uh oh. Try it again? I just fixed some settings on the server side. If it fails again I’ll make alternative arrangements.
Lovely puzzle. Now I have Glynis Johns stuck in my head…
