Guest Post: Nice Try (by Frisco)

Click for spoiler or post-solve news of the weird

What? Another guest post!? I've been admiring the work of Frisco17 (he's published like 30 puzzles in just a few months on Crosshare!), or just "Frisco," for a while now, and I'm so glad he accepted my offer to make something to share here on NP. Frisco has a naturally youthful voice with plenty of references I'm too old to get, and I love it. This puzzle is no different, and I'm happy to give it a home. 

From Frisco: "Thanks a bunch to Norah for giving me my first opportunity to put my puzzles somewhere outside of Crosshare! I hope you like this one and its unorthodox symmetry. Hope you have a NICE time solving!"

In other crossword news - two new blogs this week! Please go check out Crossweird Puzzles and XXXWordInfo - both have put up excellent initial offerings. And keep an eye on them both; you never know who might show up... (eta: 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 )

If you solve it, blog it, stream it, like it, love it, or find a typo, let me know! twitter | email | or comment below.
