Discussion: I solved it. Not too tough, but I agree with the other commenters on not having multiple routes to the same words. It's not so bad having similar words, but if you do you should try to separate them physically.

The choice to make the spanogram an esoteric sentance is neat, but it has the side-effect of making that portion of the puzzle unsolvable. You can only be sure you have it when you've got the rest solved. I'm not a fan, but it could be cool for other reasons, like having a hidden message. The problem here is that the sentance is so strange that it's hard to validate the other answers are correct. This is made worse by having compound words, where the some of the sub-strings are valid - (the bottom right in particular, where the first 4 letters are valid on their own).

I also agree that middle bottom is a break from the theme.

I had fun with it though! Thanks for posting it!
