Now You See Me...

 Happy Pride! Welcome back to my blog, where as long as there's bi discourse online, I'll be trying to turn it into a silly crossword theme. I actually had the general concept for this one a year ago, but it took me until recently to nail down a solid theme set (and to have the gridding skills to make this work with a vertical revealer).

In other crossword news, if you happen to know anyone who's a Skokie Public Library patron and wants to learn how to make crosswords, I'm leading a library event next Thursday (aimed at true beginners) where I'll demonstrate how to make a puzzle. I also have a themeless dropping next week with Inkubator that also has a bunch of queer content, so now's a great time to subscribe to them if you're looking for more puzzles to do for Pride!

Thanks to my sister for test solving. Enjoy!

Band Mates (with Dan Schwartz)

 Today's puzzle is a 21x that I made in collaboration with Dan Schwartz. You might know Dan from some of our earlier collaborations (like this one ), from his own very good blog , from his Twitch stream , or from his incredible performances at crossword tournaments. Dan sent me the idea for this theme about a year ago, and we spent awhile going back and forth coming up with a set of themers and turning it into a 21x grid (not the easiest to fill!). I think the theme is great and the final puzzle also turned out pretty great, so please enjoy! Crosshare | Puz

Do You Like Scary Movies? (with Norah Sharpe)

Happy spooky season everyone! Today, I have a seasonally appropriate collaboration with friend of the blog and frequent collaborator Norah Sharpe . Norah had the idea for this one last winter, and we agreed that October would be the perfect time to post this. In other puzzle news, yesterday Puzzmo  (a site offering a digital puzzle page) opened to the public, and they'll be running a midi crossword everyday: a mix of Lil AVC X reruns and (starting in a week and a half) brand new puzzles edited by the Lil team. As you all probably know, I've been a part of the Lil team for the past year, so I'm very excited for you all to check out all the new puzzles we have for you! One of my own Lil AVC X puzzles will also be running on Puzzmo in the next few weeks, so if you're not an AVCX subscriber, this is a chance for you to solve a new Rose puzzle! And for those of you who are AVCX subscribers, keep your eye on your inbox over the next few weeks... From Norah: "Happy spooky

Epic Highs and Lows

 Oh look, it's another blog puzzle! I know I have not been making a ton of puzzles in the past few months due to life stuff, but I made this one to ease back into things, and I'm hoping to keep the momentum going. As for this puzzle, it's just a meme-y puzzle I made that wound up with a surprising number of math-related clues (not sure how that happened), and I hope you enjoy solving it. Crosshare | Puz
