Puzzle Notes

Dear Friends:

We've got a lively and enjoyable 72-word themeless for you today by Brian Callahan. It's titled "I Need Some Alone Time" and Brian describes its difficulty and vibe like this: "This is the perfect puzzle to solve on a chilly end-of-the-week night when you have no other plans. You shouldn't have to think too hard, so pour yourself the beverage of your choice, put on some lo-fi hip hop, and get solving!"

Brian is a puzzlemaker and small dog owner from Chicago. He's also an editor/mentor for AVCX's midi branch, Lil AVCX.

If you're headed to Stamford, CT for the American Crossword Puzzle Tournament, we'll see you there! Please come say hi, or more than that if time and energy allow.

Cheers,

the AVCX+ crew
