I've submitted the "sure, why not?" answer that I think everyone else with *shoulder shrug* posts is sending in. My initial strategy was not the right one but boy do I have some character names for a novel I'll never write now....MikeM000 wrote: ↑Thu Jul 29, 2021 4:50 pmI feel like Lisa Simpson looking at the YAHOO SERIOUS FESTIVAL theater marquee. I have letters, and those letters can be put together in various name-wielding combinations, but none of them are sci-fi writers that I know of. Google is pretty much mocking my search queries now after about 9 tries; it's just coming back with "no, you moron - that is not the name of a science fiction writer. Please stop embarrassing yourself in front of me."

Got a late start (stupid meetings), but made fairly quick work of this. On shore, where I'm pleased to hear the mai tais are now being served in pitchers.

Onshore. Slower this week, as I’m still recovering from Bob, our cruise director, knocking me off page 1 last week. Why, bob? Why?

A phlox upon you for suggesting Dr. Tom would make a pun out of that! He is not Small of pun-magination, or Chicken to use it, but do not try to Cow him into silence!

If I did, they'll have thanked me for describing the transcendent experience of limburger sandwiches paired with an excellent beer and having convinced them to try them.
I can be persuasive about great food & beer.
Kind of like appreciating an excellent cigar paired with a delicious single-malt.

Crossing my fingers that I've landed on the correct shore! Two weeks in a row?? Unheard of for me. Though my husband came in with a huge assist

Pretty sure but will mull it over a bit before submitting. Looking for a confirmation in the grid?

On shore! Like others, I’m less than 100% sure, but going to submit and save my energy for MGWCC Week 5 (gulp)

On shore, but miles to go before I sip (a G & T)
Check out "The MOAT MEOW Mashup Pack" here. US$10 for 14 metas that don't always abide by the "rules" of the game: asymmetry, 2-letter words, uncrossed letters, who knows. And this time there's a mega-meta!

Well, I’ll admit to being stuck. I have step 1, but no additional steps I’ve tried have yielded anything. Still with Isaac.

On shore. I feel like I’ve seen this one before but with a different answer.
