One of the Daily POP Word Search app’s best features is the level of input from topnotch constructors. We’ve assembled one heck of a team when it comes to creating terrific, exciting, fresh, themed word search puzzles.

And over the next few weeks, we’d like to introduce you to some of them. Some names you may know, some you may not, but they’re all doing amazing work on these puzzles and deserve a little time in the limelight.

For this installment, allow us to introduce you to puzzle constructor, mom, and music aficionado Heather Phaneuf!

How did you get started in puzzles?

I didn’t intend to get started in puzzles. I wanted to pursue a job in my degree: English, so when the opportunity came to be a copy editor, I jumped at it. Little did I know, I’d start off as a photocopy girl around the office, to a proofreader, then to an editor. It’s been a wild ride!

What do you enjoy about working on Daily POP Word Search?

Daily POP Word Search was a bit out of my comfort zone, my realm, but it was something new. As someone who accustomed to creating the same sort of puzzles day in, day out: trying something new was like a breath of fresh air. I love new challenges, they push me in a creative, thoughtful way.

Is there a particular theme day that appeals to you most or that you enjoy working on?

The music theme appeals to me most. I just love the “vibe” of it, how it brings people together. I grew up in a very musical house, always something playing, and yes, I recall 8-tracks in my dad’s car, but…we all sang together, albeit out of tune. I can sing out loud a modern song just as easily as the Beatles or Jimi; damn hippie parents!

How is working on Daily POP Word Search different from constructing for some other outlet or magazine?

Working on Daily POP Word Search certainly is fun, it’s challenging, and I appreciate that. Anything that makes me open my eyes and experience something new or current: I’m game. Just be open-minded. To me, that’s growth; just be open minded. IT’S NOT THAT HARD! Try new things, live and learn!

A huge thank you to Heather for her time! Be sure to keep your eyes peeled for her puzzles in the Daily POP Word Search app, free to download for both iOS and Android users!

For our first installment, allow us to introduce you to constructor Lori Boller-Tian, word search master, Golden Girls enthusiast, and collector of vintage cookbooks!

How did you get started in puzzles?

I’ve always been a natural list maker, and when I discovered that I could make a career out of creating lists for word puzzles, I was sold. Over eighteen years later, I’m still at it!

What do you enjoy about working on Daily POP Word Search?

Researching topics is by far my favorite part of making Word Search puzzles. I especially enjoy researching puzzles for Daily POP Word Search because (with the exception of “Remember When”), the topics are really current. While working on these puzzles, I’ve learned about a lot of books, movies, and TV series that I probably wouldn’t have come across otherwise.

The puzzle themes are much more fine-tuned than most puzzles I create for magazines. Puzzles for magazines often have a monthly or seasonal theme, but for Daily POP Word Search, I try to focus on something happening on the exact day (or week) that the puzzle is released. For a magazine, I might create a general list about the TV series This Is Us. For Daily POP Word Search, I’ll take it a step further, doing a list on the last episode of season 3, set to appear on the app around the same time that season 4 premieres.

Is there a particular theme day that appeals to you most or that you enjoy working on?

Yes! “Remember When” is my absolute favorite. I’m a huge fan of all things vintage, so making puzzles with a nostalgic feel is something I really enjoy. Whether it’s a toy from my ‘80s childhood or a line of kitchenware I remember from my grandparents’ ‘60s-style home, I love delving into topics that can transport me (and our solvers!) to another era.

A huge thank you to Lori for her time! Be sure to keep your eyes peeled for her puzzles in the Daily POP Word Search app, free to download for both iOS and Android users!
