NYT Wait Times
« on: February 26, 2015, 04:55:43 PM »
I see in the Wordplay blog that today's (Thursday) themed puzzle was accepted for publication back in July 2013. That's a 19-month wait time.

Is this kind of wait time par for the course these days? I read somewhere (maybe in this forum) that 9-12 months was more like it.

My first, an unthemed, was accepted last May (9 months ago). Maybe I should put the debut in the back of my mind and the time will pass more quickly!

Thanks to anyone who can respond to this.

Congratulations on your sale!

I'm not surprised by the 9 month wait, particularly for a themeless.  Certain day slots get published more quickly because there's less of a backlog, but if I recall, Friday and Saturday have fairly long queues.  Thursdays aren't so bad for non-rebus puzzles, and Monday and Sunday I think have shorter queues.
