Regarding LA times submission specification
« on: February 26, 2015, 08:53:11 AM »
Hello,

Hello, this is my first post here. I have a few questions regarding submission of a crossword to LA Times for review:
1) In the body of the mail, should I only list the theme entries and theme clues?
2) How do I submit the grid and clues? Should I copy the grid and clues to wordpad/notepad and submit as an attachment or should I only attach the .ccw file with the mail?

Thanks,
-Parikshit

Yes, just the theme clues and words in the body of the email and attach your crossword compiler or across lite saved file to the email.

Hello,

It has been more than 9 weeks since I mailed my submission to the given email id for LA Times, but so far I haven't received a reply. I mailed my submission to xwordrich@aol.com. The specifications mention the response time as 3-8 weeks. Has anyone ever received a reply after the given time period?

Thank,
-Parikshit

Yes, sometimes they take a little longer, sometimes less.
