Hi everyone, Just wanted to say thank you for all of the kind words about this puzzle and well-wishes for my family’s move. Not every puzzle is for everyone, but I am delighted that so many of you enjoyed it. The crossword community (constructors, editors and solvers alike) is one of the most supportive and wholesome I’ve encountered on the internet, and I hope to have more puzzles for you all soon! Thanks for solving and reading this long comment. Andy PS Sorry about DEGERM. That space was originally occupied by the Toronto Raptors’ Brandon INGRAM but was reworked as part of a proper nouns purge. It was MY LOSS. 😜
I thought this was whimsical and hilarious--one of those puzzles that I wish I'd thought of as a constructor. Congratulations, Mr. Milton!
@Amanda Thank you! Having voting representation in Congress is something I won’t take lightly 🫡
@Alexis Thank you so much! I’ve also been touched by the kindness of the commenters. ❤️
@Lewis Thank you for your lovely comment! I’m glad you enjoyed the puzzle.
@Nancy J. Thank you! That was my favorite clue in the puzzle—I’m so glad the NYT team let me keep it! 👃🏼🤢
@JohnWM ba-dmem-ching! 🤣
@HeathieJ Thank you for the inspiration! There’s a bit of uncertainty now, but I’m looking forward to the future.
@sotto Voce Thank you for your kind words!
@Stocc believe it or not, Andrew the Dog was briefly considered! We couldn’t go through with it.
@Karen I’ve had lots of help and advice from other constructors in my journey to publication. If I can be of any service to help you get started, please reach out! <a href="mailto:Acolinkirk@gmail.com">Acolinkirk@gmail.com</a>
