To my British followers who consider them selves “older” (at your own discretion!), would you say you are familiar with the slang word ‘leng’ meaning attractive or good-looking?
I think the cryptic that I’m working on now might be my best. Anyone interested in testing once I’m done?
Lovely post! Still waiting on that epiphany for my own pseudonym 🤣
New blog post from me, indulging in my fascination with how #cryptic #crossword setters choose their pseudonyms ✍️ www.mycrossword.co.uk/blog/what-s-... (and a massive Thank You to the lovely people who provided stories for this)

To anyone who does the Minute Cryptic, I heard Monday’s clue is really good 👀 (and if you think otherwise, @lrlr.bsky.social has permitted me to blame him)

Just realized Gustav Klimt's (painter of The Kiss) last name includes the word 'milk' spelled backwards. Would I be a true cryptic crossword setter if I did not take this revelation and do something with it? The answer is no, and I will be using this as soon as I start my next grid
Realised I forgot to include a sample of clues, so here’s some motivation to solve: Pro-GenAI? No, tech's draining energy out from humans (13) Fake pigeons are eager to start spying (9) Evacuate, being stuck in lift after power outage? (6) Declare spar while concealing blade, cutting first (8)
G'day everyone! I have for everyone my fourth MyCrossword submission, published and ready to be solved. Likely to be my last one for a little while, with final exams coming up & a vacation afterwards, so I hope you all enjoy! mycrossword.co.uk/cryptic/3286 (enjoy the clickbait cute deer cover pic)

Question to any of the British people who follow me: Is 'Nair' (hair removal product brand) commonly known/used in the U.K. at all?
Coming up on a year of cryptic setting, looking at my first clues… cringed a little. I’ve still got lots to learn but I’ve come a very long way
Hope everyone's doing well! I've completed my fourth #cryptic #crossword for MyCrossword - posting it here if anyone's interested in testing before publication, feel free to reply or shoot me a DM with any comments! All the best www.mycrossword.co.uk/preview/5740...

In almost all of the cryptic crosswords I have set (and am currently setting), I find myself using container and insertion mechanisms in overabundance. Is this a phenomenon faced by others more experienced in the craft?
