How To Write A Good Crossword
| Games : Puzzles A good hand-written crossword is one that has a range of easy, medium and difficult clues. The easy ones can get you started, whilst the medium form the bread and butter of the puzzle. A few toughies really test the brainpower and make you think. These days sadly the art of good crossword writing is dying as too many wannabe crossword compilers buy some of the software programs available on the internet to generate puzzles with their generic word lists, leading to a poor quality puzzle often seen in newspapers these days. A good crossword will often be themed to some extent, either with the long clues on a certain topic, or perhaps a phrase somewhere embedded in the puzzle. When creating a puzzle it is best to put in your long words first, and then fill around these, as the longest clues are often the hardest to place due to their length and the number of crossovers they will have.
