Title: Best way to meet more veteran constructors willing to befriend a relative newbie
Post by: rexbickers on February 14, 2021, 04:44:26 PM

Hello... 67 yr old retired professional. Lifelong solver since grade school, but with long cold spells and fairly recebt daily devotee.

Even more recently trying my hand at constructing. I really know nothing about .ipuz format and I am not using Crossword Compiler or any other constructor assist software.

Minor brush with greatness. I met Will Shortz at a KenKen tourney some years ago. It seemed like I was the first ever Indiana resident and the first ever Indiana University grad (besides Will himself, of course) to enter the tourney.

I have constructed two puzzles so far; one themed Wed-or-Fri and one themed Sunday. Seeking the chance to offer up and get constructive feedback on polishing before submitting,

Thanks in advance for any replies.
