This is a great debut puzzle! Thanks and congrats.
Kinda like cryptic crossword 101, with the clue to the theme in the answer itself. Clever! <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/crosswords/crossword-blog/2012/jan/27/cryptic-crosswords-for-beginners-initial-letters" target="_blank">https://www.theguardian.com/crosswords/crossword-blog/2012/jan/27/cryptic-crosswords-for-beginners-initial-letters</a>
@PuzzleDog That was a SUPREME recommendation, and I PRESUME there are many other gems in the archive!
@Kelton Same here. I tried leaving them blank and it was not accepted (on the app). I entered “H”s and that was not accepted either.
@DocP If you haven’t already checked it out, The Guardian has been running “cryptics for beginners” articles since 2011. Here’s a good place to start: <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/crosswords/series/cryptic-crosswords-for-beginners" target="_blank">https://www.theguardian.com/crosswords/series/cryptic-crosswords-for-beginners</a>. Check out the links in the “cryptic devices,” “bits and bobs,” and “individual letters” sections.
@PKC The Tao gives birth to the One. The One gives birth to the Two. The Two give birth to the Three. The Three give birth to the ten thousand things.
