Don't bite off more than you can solve. This week's puzzle was constructed by Kelly Richardson and edited by Hoang-Kim Vu. Kelly is a northern Michigander who loves running, stand up paddleboarding, and traveling. In addition to constructing crosswords, she is a regular contributor to her hometown newspaper, the Traverse City Record-Eagle. Her favorite food fight is the one in the 1991 Spielberg cinematic masterpiece, Hook.
Defector crosswords, launched in partnership with our friends at AVCX, run every Monday. If you’re interested in submitting a puzzle to us, you can read our guidelines HERE.
