A Bit Too Wordy (PfP #70a)

◆ · By Conflux · Published 2021-11-24T06:09:52.478Z

Constructor's Note
This was my attempt at a crossword that’s way too wordy, but it really ended up only a bit too wordy. Anyway, normal crossword rules apply!
Check out more of my puzzles at tinyurl.com/puzzlesforprogress - this crossword is part of Issue #70.
I make puzzles (of all different kinds, not just crosswords!) at https://puzzlesforprogress.net. If you liked this puzzle, you might like those!
