I’m on the record as enjoying awards shows. Sure, they can get padded, political, and self-congratulatory, but they’re still often our best shot at recognizing extraordinary work. In that spirit, I was happy to play a few roles this year in the Orca Awards, the crossword “Oscars.” Being on the go last weekend kept me from catching the video ceremony until lately, but it’s a good look at the cruciverbal community.
If you want the video version of the ceremony, you can check it out here, but if you’d rather just read the results, you can get them here.
