          Thank you to everyone who has been solving my puzzles over the past year! It's been a blast and I've loved being part of this crossword community. The source of the theme quote - if you haven't heard this song, you should: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eetIgGXH6DA

                  A terrific puzzle and an impressive streak! That's one of my favorite MG songs, though I think Lovecraft in Brooklyn is his best. The clue on MOSES is brilliant. I finished with an amusing typo. I thought you were being clever with the Velveteen Rabbit clue and put READ instead of REAL. I didn't know SLOAN.

                    Thank you for showing some love to my MOSES clue, which I wad inordinately proud of! And that REAL/READ pair is going into my Schrodinger file!
