My name is Ben Chenoweth, and I'm currently a teacher at Donvale Christian College, in Melbourne, Australia. I've worked overseas with Wycliffe Bible Translators, and in Australia as a secondary and tertiary teacher. (I was the Educational Designer / eLearning Coordinator at Melbourne School of Theology for four years, and taught at Eastern College for some of that time.)
My main interests are music, writing, theology and various combinations of those. I have a number of other interests, including reading, crosswords (especially cryptics and metas), and computer games. I also enjoy programming. My About Me website (https://www.ephesusscroll.com/about) was put together as an HTML/CSS demonstration for my Year 10 Computing class. Another interesting programming project is my EPUB Metadata Editor (an open-source project on GitHub).
I know I had fun constructing this puzzle: the big question is will you have as much fun as me completing the grid and solving the meta? I sure hope so! Answer & explanation: https://xword-muggles.com/viewtopic.php?p=151591#p151591
I have absolutely no idea where this one came from! I just found myself thinking along certain lines and before I knew it, there it was. This one might be a bit tricky, but hopefully you will get there in the end. The answer to the meta is an 11…
'Tis the season! The answer to the meta is a current event. Answer & explanation: https://www.xword-muggles.com/viewtopic.php?p=150867#p150867
This puzzle is a milestone of sorts. See if you can work out what it is! The answer to the meta is an appropriate book of the Bible (but with "Rome" in the puzzle title, let me assure you that it isn't "Romans"!) Answer & explanation: https://xword…
The seed for this puzzle was the title, which actually came to me one morning as I was waking up. I guess you could call it the detritus of a dream! It took quite a while to work out how that could be made into a meta; it took even longer to make it…
Successful solvers should be able to work out what the seed entry was for this puzzle. Actually, you might be able to work that out even if you don't solve the meta, the answer to which is something you might see on a laden table at this time of year…
Here's another MEOW from Down Under! This one is definitely on the harder side, I think. But there are hints to be had for those paying close attention. The answer to the meta is a composer (and it's not one of the composers in the image above…
With sincerest apologies to my US solvers, I tentatively present this puzzle. The answer to the meta is a phrase that describes what each themer has. Answer & explanation: https://www.xword-muggles.com/viewtopic.php?p=148167#p148167
Here's another MEOW for you where the grid entries are all made up and the clues don't matter. That's right, the clues are like signatures on credit cards or bank websites that prevent you pasting your ID number - two excellent examples of security…
The spark for this meta puzzle occurred when I misread the title of a themed crossword. When I went back to confirm the title, I decided then and there that my misreading deserved to become a puzzle in its own right. And now here it is! The answer to…
