I have just received a cheque for $100 as one of the winners for the Baffler puzzle and am so thrilled!

I’ve subscribed to your publications for at least 8 years and enjoy each and every issue. The Baffler is definitely a fun challenge – needing answers for authors, plays, books, geography, history and so much more, along with word definitions!

Years ago I started an alphabetical journal where I recorded ‘unusual’ words and meanings, people and places that required ‘searching’, and it has been so helpful through the years as a reference. It’s a delight when I look something up in the hope I had once recorded it – and voila, many times there it is – and of course the pages continue to be filled!

Thank you for the years of enjoyment your puzzles have provided – and for the wonderful surprise to receive your cheque!!
