This week's contest is titled "Finishing the Story" by Mike Shenk

The answer to this week's contest crossword is a character from stories

Good luck with the meta and the grid.

For the next two weeks while I am away, the lovely and talented Wendy Walker will be the cruise director.

Ashore. Glad it was quick (and in my wheelhouse) as my wife and I are both currently fighting COVID (and losing!).

On the beach. Fortunately the cabana boy just received a large shipment of Guinness, vodka and sunscreen. So, the tiki bar is ready!

Got it! I was fortunate to MArch straight to shore--no RABbit holes this week. I will miss OUt on the rabbit hole STOry of the week--and most likely will miss out on the mug as well. In honor of my Dad's birthday (he would have been 89 today), I'll have the cabana boy uncoRK some blue nun--we always used to have some at lunch when we took the boat out.
