Oh!

I wrote the previous post over a couple of days, and in the process forgot that half the reason for writing it was so I could link to this:

Women of Letters

Charity crossword pack written by a bunch of the best female crossword constructors around today


If you are a regular solver of newspaper crosswords, you may have noticed that all of the editors are men. You may have also noticed that women’s names don’t appear as often as men’s names in the puzzle bylines. But the thing is, whether you noticed that or not, women have been here. We’ve been editing and proofreading, constructing and solving, and, well, we’ve been perfecting crosswords. We persist. It’s what we do.

This whole puzzle thing is so fascinating to me. I had no idea it was such a…bustling world, I guess. I think that B99 ep was the first…uh…clue I had that it could be competitive.

Though I always did suspect it was overly male slanted, so glad to see the women putting this out there.
