Puzzle Notes

Dear friends:

We're delighted to bring you Ben Zimmer's "A Lil Crossword," a playful 13x11 puzzle.

Ben Zimmer is a linguist, lexicographer, and all-around word nut. He is the language columnist for The Wall Street Journal, chair of the American Dialect Society's New Words Committee, and vocabulary judge for the Scripps National Spelling Bee. Lately he has been constructing crosswords for Slate and contributing to the Crossword Craze project.

Ben says: "Thanks to the Lil team for the opportunity! I hope solvers find this to be an appealing lagniappe."

Headed to your inbox next week: midis from roster members Kareem and Katja.

Thanks for your support!

Your friends at Lil AVC X
