This is an idea I shopped around to a couple of mainstream markets but couldn’t get a bite on. Which makes me sad, because I think it’s cute. Anyway, I made the puzzle, so I might as well put it out into the world. Hope you like it! I have no idea how to rate the difficulty on this one, but it won’t be anything as bad as my themelesses.
Bonus Puzzle: Blah Blah Jargon Blah Blah
Absolutely joyful theme with fun clues for solvable fill. I loved it – don’t pretend to be an editor but thank you for sharing!
I’d refuse it for the GBBO BELLA ALI MACRO crossings.
Loved the theme. I’m sorry no one picked it up for publishing. The NW looked like it could be trouble, but a little thought revealed that there was only one way it made sense.
For the difficulty level, I’d put it at a NYT Tuesday/Wednesday. Not like your usual brain melters, which I love even though I can’t always solve them without errors.
