Hi, we're Margaret and Eileen — so excited to be writing to you all! We're both medical students at Baylor College of Medicine in Houston.
Margaret grew up in Poland and started solving crosswords to improve her English after moving to the United States at age 16. For many years, we were (almost) daily solvers, but had never considered constructing until we met each other.
We started working on this crossword a year ago while on vacation together in Maine. We picked the Taylor SWIFT theme because:
As Taylor alludes to in one of the hidden songs mentioned above, there's nothing more frustrating than trying to solve a crossword and realizing there's no right answer. We hope you don't feel that way solving today. Please feel free to reach out to us about anything Taylor- or crossword-related (eileenw@bcm.edu, Malgorzata.Nowakowska@bcm.edu).
P.S. Eileen here. On a personal note, despite my best efforts over many, many years, I have yet to fulfill my greatest life goal: meeting Taylor! (Well, and becoming a great E.R. doc.)
