It's been quite a while since I posted here. A lot has happened since.

Hello again! Today's puzzle is another collab. This time with Steve Mossberg. It was such a pleasure working with him. You can find Steve's other puzzles at squarepursuit and squarechase .  From Steve: "When Liari asked me to come collaborate on a cryptic, it was a total no-brainer. She's an absolute solving demon and one of the few people in the States that likes UK cryptics as much as I do! I love her pithy clues in this grid and it was an absolute pleasure to cook this one up together. I hope it's as fun for folks to solve as it was to make!"

You can find the puzzle over on MyCrossword . Since my last post here, I have been in the Independent (11650 on 12/02/2024) and the Browser (#159 on 04/02/2024).
