• GALE
• MERRY
• HAIRY
• PEAT
• FILL
• WHINNY
• ATOM
• RUSTLE

Today’s puzzle was another oddball and sadly saw me using hints to solve it. To start off, I quickly found the words MERRY and GALE at the top right. Next, I stumbled upon HAIRY at the bottom right. And this is when I found myself stuck.

After staring at the grid for a good five minutes, I clicked the Hint button and got the word PEAT, which made me see the word “Homo” next to it. So, I started connecting the letter and stumbled upon today’s Spangram — HOMOPHONES.

Finding the remaining words was a simple task, with FILL being the one singled out on the right. Then, I connected ATOM, RUSTLE, and WHINNY (it required a few tries) to complete the puzzle today.
