huzzah!

let's just recap the rules for this one:

the puzzle uses 9 letters instead of numbers. it consists of 5 overlapping sudoku grids (the large 9x9 squares). within each of these 5 grids, every row, column and internal 3x3 square must contain each of the 9 letters exactly once.

solve the crossword clues ... solve the sudoku. I've tried to make the clues moderate-doable, and the resulting sudoku moderate-tough.

I'm not really happy with the way this one turned out (since as I was checking the clues I found out 8 across is actually an alternate spelling. bother.)

but I'm posting it anyway. what the hey.

I finally got this form worked out. the secret is not to worry about symmetry, and just go for it.

this is a good one! (if I do say so myself). I'll definitely be making some more of these, as above, with no 'given' letters.
