Dear friends:

Today we bring you another potentially perplexing performance of puzzling proficiency via this piece of prestidigitation, an 11x10 themeless midi by Katie Hoody titled—poof! presto-changeo!—"Something from Nothing." Voila!

Katie adds: "I started this puzzle with the grid shape rather than with a particular seed entry. I enjoy the process of starting with an empty grid and then gradually piecing together a set of words and phrases that work well in that shape. It always feels a bit like creating something from nothing. Ta-da!"

Solve this puzzle online! (AVCX login credentials required)

Headed to your inbox next week from Lil AVCX: a midi puzzle from roster member Carina da Rosa.

Happy solving, yall.

Your friends at Lil AVCX
