I did a roundup of Crossword News last week, but one important bit of news came through too late to be included, so it gets its own post today!

BosWords has only been around since 2017, but every year, they deliver several outstanding puzzly experiences.

Their flagship event has long been the Summer Tournament, but you’re missing out if you don’t participate in their other events. Their Spring and Fall Themeless League events are all-virtual weekly puzzles to solve over a two-month period. It’s a great way to stretch your solving muscles without the pressure of in-person tournament-style solving.

And speaking of at-home solving, they just announced that registration is open for the 2025 Winter Wondersolve event.

It’s taking place on Sunday, February 2, from 1-4:30 PM Eastern, and features three themed puzzles and a themeless. The best of both worlds!

Plus they’ve lined up a terrific team. You’ve got event directors John Lieb and Andrew Kingsley, puzzle editor Brad Wilber, and a quartet of constructors handling the puzzling this year: Alina Abidi, Kareem Ayas, Carly Schuna, and Andrew White.

Check out the Boswords website for all the details (including a video narrated by John Lieb).

Will you be participating in the Winter Wondersolve (or any other Boswords events this year), fellow puzzlers? Let us know! We’d love to hear from you.
