Tips For Your Next Puzzle

• When encountering celebrity clues like "actress [last name]" or "actor [first name]", always consider the most famous individuals associated with that name. Often, it's the person with a long-standing career or an iconic role.
• Pay close attention to the letter count provided by the puzzle. Even if you think you know the answer, verify that the name (or part of the name) fits the given number of boxes.
• For names, try variations: sometimes it's the first name, sometimes the last, and occasionally a nickname or a specific role's name. In the case of "actress Skye," the first name "IONE" is the standard go-to.
• If an answer doesn't immediately come to mind, consider the possibility of a less famous but equally valid person. However, for a general clue, the most well-known figure is usually the target.
