Choice Double Crostics: 50 Puzzles from the archives of Sue Gleason's doublecrostic website - Paperback

K Watkins grew up in a family which treasures puns. She started reading when she was three years old, wrote her first bad poetry about three years later, began attending rehearsals of the Colorado Shakespeare Festival at the age of ten, and eventually came up with a dissertation on narrative in Shakespeare's plays which resulted in a PhD from Yale. Her early memories include watching her mother solve the double crostics at the back of the *Saturday Review*. Decades later, she laboriously, clumsily created a few herself using pencil and paper - and, especially, eraser. What a thrill it was for her to discover Sue Gleason's website, complete with tools that computerize all the difficult mechanics of construction! Small wonder that K now delights in constructing double crostics.
