I started constructing a little over a year ago and have published puzzles in USA Today, Universal, and American Values Crossword Club, but I'm excited to have my first puzzle in the NY Times! I've been addicted to solving crosswords since my days in law school where I'd tear out the NYT puzzle each day from the newspaper and solve them during particularly dull classes.
This original submission had references to both SUBREDDIT and HEROWORSHIP, but we had a debate about whether those sandwiches were the same thing. We settled on CUBANCIGAR as a "hero" "sub"stitute. (Apologies for the dad joke, I couldn't help myself.)
I'd like to take a moment to say thank you to Erik Agard and others who are generous with their time at the Crossword Puzzle Collaboration Directory on Facebook. I'm very appreciative of the many people who are going out of their way to increase diversity and representation in mainstream crosswords, and to help newcomers get a foothold in the constructing game! I hope you'll be seeing more of my puzzles soon.
