Sharpen Your Pencils: Crossword Puzzle Fun with Michelle Arnot – Free

One of the highlights of our 2020 online season was a crossword puzzle workshop by the Crossword Puzzle Maven Michelle Arnot, and we’re delighted she returns this year for more fascinating inside information about crossword puzzles.

This morning of coffee (you at your house, Michelle at hers) and crosswords will include Michelle showing you how to improve your solving time with The Berkshire Eagle puzzles. She’ll also give her unique insights into how the crossword has changed since it became a global pastime in the 1920s.

Michelle Arnot, author of Crossword Puzzles for Dummies and Four-Letter Words: Secrets of a Crossword Insider, serves as an official at the annual American Crossword Puzzle Tournament, organized by NPR’s puzzle master, Will Shortz. She and husband Roger Brown have been Sandisfield homeowners since 1980.
