Our Mission
The impetus behind Westwords is the desire to serve people who have not had the chance to participate in crossword tournaments in the past — whether because of being relatively new to crosswords, or because geographic distance makes travel too expensive, too time-consuming, or too much of a health risk — along with solvers of all abilities and experience levels. Crossword lovers everywhere are welcome!
