Join Brandon of YEGwords as he teaches the joy of making your own crossword puzzles, from what tools to use to coming up with a great theme.
Have you ever solved a crossword puzzle and thought "that was so fun - I bet I could make one of these" only to have no idea where to begin? Enter, me.
Hey, it's Brandon, the guy who writes and publishes a crossword puzzle every week under YEGwords. This seems like a daunting task - but with the right tools, the right ways of thinking, and some of practice, it's one of my favourite things to do. And I want more people to experience the joy of making a crossword.
Come join me at Labo Coffee for a fully interactive workshop where we'll work through questions like:
- What tools do crossword constructors use?
- How do I make my first crossword?
- Where can I publish my first crossword?
- What makes a good clue?
- What makes a good theme?
- Tips, tricks, and ways of brainstorming fun themes
