Constructor's Note
Hi Crosshare--first time posting on here! I've made some crosswords for friends' birthdays and got excited to try my hand at more grids, like this themed mini. Feedback welcome!

    I tried something similar a while back ago. Love how you clued yours...almost feels like yours is the "call" and mine is the "response," haha: https://crosshare.org/crosswords/ANqMPb815sJo5IkT2zlA/grammar-lesson
    Congrats on the first puzzle. Looking forward to more!

      Haha, yeah, maybe after some tutoring, I could aspire to make a correctly-spelled grid! That's funny you just did the same theme, I had missed it. But actually have really been enjoying your clever puzzles. Thanks for the comment!
