I figure I need to do two things in order to achieve this goal:
- Find a timeslot to do a crossword every day
- Find a source for a good daily crossword
The broadsheets have good quick crosswords (cryptic, for the moment, is way past my ability) but I’m not sure I want to buy a paper every day. Most of the papers put their crosswords online, not for free, but for a subscription fee that, while much less expensive than buying papers every day, is still not cheap—that’s another option.
Of course nobody says the crosswords have to be current, I could just get a book of the things and work through that…
Finding time to do a crossword every day is the other part of the problem. It would be nice to work it into my lunch break at work but my job is very interrupt-driven and I don’t think that’ll be easy to stick to—when I try to create a routine at work I usually end up discarding all pretence of it within a couple of days.
