48: heart eyes

another mini. happy solving!

construction notes

not too much to comment on here---i seeded with 1A, let Crossfire find fills, and picked the one i liked best.

other notes

in my last post, i said i was gonna try worrying less about quality and just make some grids, but... idk, i'm finding it really hard to let go of those perfectionistic tendencies lol. i have a couple half-finished midis that i've been stuck on for weeks. i've found some fills that i don't hate, but i keep telling myself, "if i just look a liiittle harder, i can find something better." and then i try and try and inevitably hit a brick wall. rinse and repeat.

so, still sort of fighting with my brain when it comes to making puzzles. i feel bad, because i know there are people who enjoy my crosswords and i've barely put anything out for a while now. but i'll keep trying.

hope you enjoyed solving this one, and happy pride month :)
