THEMELESS MONDAY: [ ACROSS LITE][ PDF]
PROGRAMS: [Across Lite] [Adobe Reader]
Holiday season already? Seems baffling, but here we are. I feel like I say that every Cyber Monday, and maybe saying that is just as much of a tradition as anything else this time of year.
Speaking of holiday traditions, it's that time of the year again when I ask for a modest donation if you've been enjoying the puzzles the back half of this year. This site is free, and always will be. There are no paid subscriptions, so stop asking me or pretending you paid for one. Free means just that. Free. But who doesn't like tips? Bartenders and waitresses like 'em. So do crossword puzzle constructors. And so, like we always do about this time, if you can scratch my back, I'll scratch yours.
For just a non-market-adjusted tip of $10, you can sleep well knowing that BEQ is happy. And a happy BEQ makes good puzzles. I'll hit you back with two Sunday puzzles, one themeless, the other themed. A Supersized week of BEQ puzzles. Huzzah. Anyway, PayPal or Venmo (@TheBEQ) preferred, but I do take checks (email me).
And hey! If you've been on the fence, and want to join in the already going-on Marching Bands and/or diagramless puzzles (current year 2017-18), throw in an additional $10 for each title and I'll send you the catch up puzzles as well. And lastly, if you were still thinking about giving that puzzle loving friend a custom puzzle made by me, email me today! We still have time, but time's running out!
Again, this site is free, and you can totally ignore this appeal. The Internet is for free stuff, I get it. Just tip if you can. Thanks for all the love and the support.
Share the puzzle. New one on Thursday.
