Go Away I'm Sleeping: Cryptic Crosswords

My Thirty-Fourth Crossword No, it's not mashed potatoes. It's another GAIS crossword. As 34 is not a multiple of 3, this crossword doesn't have a theme that requires you to change clues or answers. But it does have a gimmick which I think is very fun, and for which others will probably start to hate me. Otherwise, I'm very proud of some of the clues here. They were a lot of fun to put together. And aside from the, erm, schtick, I don't think they're terribly difficult, as they have been in other recent grids. Thank you to Jack Keynes for test-solving. Next Friday is a special day, and in commemoration, I will have a crossword out on MyCrossword : the best grid I've ever written, according to Mental Playground, so watch that space.   Have fun! - GAIS, 09/04/22

  My Thirty-Third Crossword Hello everyone. It's been over a month, for which I can only apologise. I've had a fair amount of schoolwork to do, resulting in cluing sessions' being few and far between.  On January the 13th of this year, a most peculiar occurrence happened to me, and as soon as I got home, I decided to make a grid about it. I dillied and dallied over whether or not to make it a themer, and if so, how, but after two and a half months, the grid is finally here. Also, on my 17.5th birthday (this Tuesday), I caught coronavirus. So I've got that going for me, which is nice. Thank you to Jack Keynes and Agnijo Banerjee for test-solving, and also to Jack for providing me with a passable clue for 25-across. Have fun! - GAIS, 31/03/22

My Thirty-First Crossword Hello everyone. I'm very proud of this grid. I think there are some rather fun constructions, and some interesting words. I hope you enjoy it too.

  My Thirtieth Crossword Hello everyone. If I'm correct, it's been a while. I have been waiting until the release of the 4th Modern Languages Review by my school, which contains this crossword. It was made hastily, but I still think it holds up. There's a nice little theme in this one. Have fun! - GAIS, 31/01/22

Here's a spiral puzzle. It's far from pangrammatic, but still has some fun fill. I t has 100 characters, which form words both when the entire string is read from the outside in, and from the inside out, with American-style clues to aid you. Thanks to Steve Mossberg for the inspiration, and to Jack Keynes and TeamCrazyMatt for testing. Be sure to check out my other tidbits. In case you liked this one, I have  another spiral , and I also have a  wordoku  and a  novelty puzzle  (which still appears to be unsolved...). They come after every 7th puzzle. Fear not: the advent of grid #29 is imminent. Have fun! - GAIS, 24/12/21
