Crosswords of Death

666 Across: 4-letter word for nerd. I'm just kidding... I'm only an occasional puzzler, but I fully approve of The Grid Reaper. Spotted it at Barnes and Noble the other day and felt it was required to take a snap shot, because I am compelled to catch publishers trying to cash in on goth and horror conventions that have absolutely nothing to do with the content of their books (such as Zombie Sudoku). But this one is actually legit. Its author, NY Times puzzle consructor David Kahn, thematizes the puzzles he writes for the NY Times and elsewhere in the…

Former Gorelets Gallery Art Now on Flickr — and Announcing “Ambulations”

I'm still overhauling this website to consolidate things and make them easier for me to manage (so I can spend more time writing).  I recently pulled my microblog from the Posterous website (and dumped my pinterest account) and those posts are now happily reintegrated into this blog, which I'm trying to make more active as a genuine blog and less of a page for only sharing Goreletter department drafts.  I also started a new department on this blog, called "Ambulations," to make up for it:  it will feature mobile posts, road trip photos, and ideas jotted while on the move,…
