Puzzle Notes

Dear subscribers: 

Aimee Lucido's "Reel Yawners" is 1.5/5 in difficulty, one of the easiest-rated puzzles we've run. Enjoy!

Many of you guessed correctly that in last week's puzzle, the clue for 11-Down was the one written by Caleb Madison and I. The goal is generally to allow the constructor to express her or his voice as much as possible, especially with an elite clue writer like Tyler, but some entries just lob themselves up there ...

Happy summer solving,
