Seven Letters, Starts with L

Created and Curated by Ken Holm

You build the Sunday crossword for the Lakeshore Ledger. To save the puzzle page, you have twelve weeks to co-construct it with Theo Marchetti, the loud weekday guy you've been insulting in hidden answers for three years. The only person you really talk to is an anonymous pen pal called Downstroke.
