In case you missed it, the puzzle itself is here. Check it out before continuing ~ spoilers below!

Welcome back!

Last week, I published the very first of these puzzles — and it may have been too easy in some places, too difficult in others. 🤔

Hopefully it was fun either way!

Not only was it a crossword, but there was also a scavenger element to the puzzle. I took a specific journey through recent articles, each answer correlating to a different article and author. First, I’ll walk through that journey and introduce the amazing writers I discovered in the process. Skip to the end if you just want the crossword answer sheet.

Thank You To The Writers!
I’d like to take a moment and thank all the writers I’ve tagged in the answer articles for their works. Each and every one of them were an enjoyable read, and I highly recommend checking them out on these articles and even other works that draw your interest.

Fair warning:
I’ve added my two cents to each article mentioned below — what I like about it, and what I felt could be improved. These are just my thoughts, and may not be meaningful. Ultimately, I enjoyed all the articles as-is, so if the suggestions don’t resonate with the authors, take them…
