Puzzle Notes

Dear friends,

Kate Hawkins' "Challenging Turn" is 3/5 difficulty. Kate just moved to New York City, and we're gonna hang out soon! That's all she gave me by way of a bio. Regardless, she's wonderful, and you'll love the puzzle. It's a pleasure to run it.

Don't forget that AVCX is running a mini subscription drive this fall. If you're able to tell your friends about our puzzles, and maybe even encourage them to sign up, it'll help to ensure that we can keep running next year and in years to come. And if you happen to have a platform where we might spread the word -- say, a TikTok account with tens of millions of followers (looking at you, AVCX subscriber The Rock) -- please let us know if you'd be amenable to helping amplify our drive. Regardless and no matter what, thank you!


Yrs,
Ben and the expanded AVCX crew
