Mystery Crossword Puzzle

I did this crossword several years ago, and I may have posted it back then.  I'm pretty sure though, for some reason, I didn't post the answer.  Even if I did, it's all new today, right?

I'd love to do more crosswords, and I might, but I find they are really hard to compose, because you need a good, short clue written in a certain style, and an answer that will fit in a puzzle with other words.  I think I have enough pre-made clues to do another mystery puzzle.  If I can get back into the zone for creating these, more topics to come.

Answer on Thursday :)   Click to enlarge.

Mystery Crossword

I like crosswords and want to make them but I have had terrible luck with the online generators available. 

I don't care to purchase software because they may not work for posting here any better than anything else.  Grr I say.  I had high hopes for the Read Writer Think Puzzle Maker until the finished product displayed with the clues in a little box that required you to scroll to see the clues.










Boo hiss.  They let me print out the puzzle and it looked great but then I had to try to scan it and then post it like this:




 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Lord knows what this will look like when I hit publish.  A mystery indeed!   Just in case this displays decently, answers will be up next Saturday along with a new and exciting puzzle!
 
Ha!  Looks fine when you enlarge it.  Yay, I say.  I can scan the Answer key I printed as well so this puzzle is in the bag.
