Wordplay

I love words. I also like to play. Therefore, it follows that I find wordplay incredibly awesome. Here's some stuff that I wrote.

Crosswords

  1. Presentation Distraction (8×8): My first symmetric crossword. I made it one day in class when I was bored, and then decided to put it on the Web so that people could do it instead of listening to a boring presentation I had to give later that day. It took about fifteen or twenty minutes to write.
  2. Capital Letters (15×15): A crossword with a half-written attempt to make an interactive interface. The interaction doesn't work, but you can print the crossword.

Metapuzzles

In a metapuzzle, the solution to the main puzzle provides some kind of clue to a final "answer." Usually there are no explicit instructions given for the second part of the puzzle—figuring out what to do to get the answer is part of the fun.
  1. Word Search for JJ: A word search made for a friend who said stuff like this drives him crazy. If you've never tried a metapuzzle, this might be a good one to start with.
  2. E.g., a Mirror Image? (2017 holiday puzzle)
  3. Season's Tree-tings! (2020 holiday puzzle)
  4. Decoration Consternation (2022 holiday puzzle)
  5. Snowball (2023 holiday puzzle)
