Hey gang! My new book, "The Healthy Brain Book of Word Puzzles," is out and can be ordered from Amazon
HERE. It contains 32 brand-new Split Decisions® plus a variety of original word puzzles invented by the late George Bredehorn.
Split Decisions® was invented by the late George Bredehorn in the 1980s and has appeared in numerous publications, such as The New York Times, CROSSW RD Magazine, various Sterling publications, GAMES Magazine, and various Dell publications.
George passed away in 2012, and it was his wish that I continue creating and publishing Split Decisions® puzzles. My Split Decisions® currently appear in The New York Times, as well as in every issue of Games World of Puzzles.
In addition, I have decided to publish occasional Split Decisions® puzzles on this website. Hope you enjoy them!
Recently I was the guest on an Australian podcast. I had no idea anyone down there had ever heard of me! To listen, click HERE.
There's an article about me in the Cornell alumni magazine! Check it out HERE
