Hi there. If you're looking at this because you read one of the Winston Breen books and enjoyed solving its puzzles, you might want to head over to http://www.puzzlesnacks.com. I post a free puzzle each week, easy but interesting for all level of solvers. There are a whole bunch of other puzzles there, too, including mini puzzle hunts similar to what you'll find in my books. Go take a look!
