Chalkdust issue 17

 2023-05-22 
For the past couple of months, I've once again been spending an awful lot of my spare time working on Chalkdust. Today you can see the result of all this hard work: Chalkdust issue 17. I recommend checking out the entire magazine: you can read it online or order a physical copy.
My most popular contribution to the magazine is probably the crossnumber. I enjoyed writing this one; hope you enjoy solving it.
I also spent some time making this for the back page of the magazine. It's probably the most fun I've had making something stupid for Chalkdust for ages.
