I’m writing some American-style puzzles at the Guardian [feed].
For British solvers, the main differences are that abbreviations and fragments of phrases are allowed. All squares are part of an across as well as a down, so there’s more ambiguity.
The puzzles are presented as printable PDFs, but are better approached as .puz files using Across Lite or better still Crossword Solver.
