puzzle 002 :: 9999999999999999💥

hello hello!!

thank you all for the warm reception on my first puzzle! apparently 153 people tried the puzzle, which is like 140 more then i would've thought would test!

a LOT has happened in the past 3 weeks like a lot lot... and maybe in the future i'll talk about it but tbh i was really struggling... but crosswords have played a part in keeping me going! still no publication acceptance but we move. another 15x themeless on the docket & this one was created because i had a fabulous idea for 1A's clue and i really really wanted to include 45A and the grid kinda fits it. this puzz. has a lot of nine-letter entries and i really really like the first stack of them. also this is DIFFICULT. probably like a hard nyt saturday, oops. enjoy!

thank you so much to jamixy & frisco for testing and great feedback. until the next puzz (which will be a lot easier i promise)!

puzzle 001 & introduction :: digipak

hey!! welcome to the first puzzle on this blog. will any of them be good? we'll see. most of them are gonna be themeless.

notes on the constructor

gen z black alternative gay - fill will reflect that
blog isn't going to be very serious (lowercase clues probably?)
been told that i have a very distinct clueing voice. also will have LONG clues sometimes sorry i suck at being concise
kinda suck at mid-length fill (i think this is me being hard on myself oops)

enjoy the first one it's a 15 by 15!! i'm naming it digipak because (spoiler) the grid shape kinda looks like a CD.

will also post an alternative black song with every puzzle that i really love because music is probably my favorite form of art and i love diversifying music tastes. enjoy!

(also listen to the new nourished by time album please it's excellent. it's called the passionate ones)

thank you to erik, echser, yoghurt, and bonedriven for testing 💗
