Inspired by Ewoly! As they put it: “A gogen is a 5x5 grid made of the 25 letters of the alphabet A-Y (not Z). The across clues give you some position of the letters. The down clues show words that can be made by moving from cell to cell in the grid to make the word (this includes diagonally).” Think of it like Reverse Boggle. The meta answer is a time-related Spanish word hinted at (but not directly found on) the completed grid.

Fun facts:
All other triples of consecutive months have repeated letters, making them unsuitable for a gogen.
No others months or days of the week fit on the grid, either because they have duplicate letters or because AUG/SEP/OCT were too far apart.
I think JUNE is superfluous, but it fit the theme, so it stays.
The meta answer was a lucky accident.
Sorry about “MVP”, all the vowels ended up on the left.
Oof. I totally misinterpreted this, LOL. I thought the down things were CLUES for words that would be in the grid... not the words themselves. I tried every which way to stuff PICKLE in there for GHERKIN and came up empty. Now that I know the rules- I would love to do more! Hah.

That sounds harder than either a crossword or a gogen on its own! Might as well throw in cryptic-style clues while we’re at it!
Oh, trust me- it was brutally difficult. LOL. Well, I mean- maybe since that wasn't the intent- a puzzle with that intent wouldn't have been quite SO hard. But that could certainly add a degree of difficulty- although I would think that the clues and their answers would have to be fairly direct & obvious combinations, or you could get lost at sea real easily.
