Questions
Why was a word left out?
It shares no letters with the others or would touch another word. Try New layout or add a word that links it.
Can words have spaces?
Yes. Spaces and hyphens are removed in the grid, so "ice cream" becomes ICECREAM and the letter count in the clue matches.
How many words work best?
Eight to twenty-five words with some common letters give a nicely connected puzzle.
