For whatever reason, I still had free access to the New York Times mini until about a week ago. It didn’t shut off for me when it shut off for everyone else, and I secretly hoped that my account had slipped through some crack and would go unnoticed for years. Not the case. It was a sad day when the little lock appeared on the mini.

I tried a handful of other mini crossword options — Washington Post, LA Times, Apple News, etc — but the closest one I’ve found to the New York Times mini is Crossherd. The clues feel like New York Times clues, even if the interface looks different.

Are you also doing #MicroblogMondays? Add your link below. The list will be open until Tuesday morning. Link to the post itself, not your blog URL. (Don’t know what that means? Please read the three rules on this post to understand the difference between a permalink to a post and a blog’s main URL.) Only personal blogs can be added to the list. I will remove any posts connected to businesses or sponsored posts.
