About this puzzle

The NYT Midi Crossword sits squarely between the Mini and the full daily puzzle — usually a 7×7 or 9×9 grid that takes a confident solver about three to five minutes. Today's grid was constructed by Aaron Gee and Avery Gee Katz and edited by Ian Livengood. The puzzle is titled “Songwriting”. Tap any tile to reveal a single letter, or click a clue for the full breakdown with hints, letter analysis, and cross-puzzle history.
