Flights of Fancy

This is actually the first puzzle I ever designed for public consumption, and after numerous rounds of revisions, I was fortunate enough to have it published in Matt Gaffney's Weekly Crossword Contest. Pretty amazing way to make my debut to the world of serious puzzlers, even though there were a few hiccups (which you can read about in the solutions). The answer to the meta-puzzle is a six-letter grid entry with no connection.

Indivisible

My first published crossword puzzle! It appeared in The Mathematical Intelligencer 41 (2019), no. 4, p. 75. The choice of venue should tell you something about the theme.

Empire

This puzzle is dedicated to my grandfather, Morton Levine z"l (1925-2006), who first taught me how to solve diagramless puzzles. He would have enjoyed this one!
