Puzzle Notes

Hi friends: 

Kameron Austin Collins has "AVCX Themeless #9," at 4/5 difficulty, this week. That's about as easy as we rate themelesses; testing times for this one were fast. We toyed with 3.5/5 but were brought back to our senses at the last minute.

The AVCX's collaboration with Slate begins today! Try a free (and easy) puzzle made for the launch by Angela Olson Halsted, over at Slate.

Pat Blindauer is up next, then Ben.

Yours,

Ben and the AVCX crew [avxwords.com, @AVCXWord]
