As I write this, I have finished the clues for the Ubercross Abecedaria A through D. That’s 18,016 clues done, about 15.475% of a 116,422 total. (The D’s and A’s in the image below stand for Downs and Acrosses.)
To be fair, I did a lot of these clues years ago, during the height of the pandemic, and I’m often just editing clues suggested by my sources. Still, not too shabby. The C sector was the second-most challenging sector to write clues for—I couldn’t use any suggested clues for that one (you’ll see why, soon enough). So I should be able to move ahead faster now, maybe do three sectors a month, so I’ve got a big head start before I get to U.
Oh, U. U may well be the death of me. But one challenge at a time.
