Unclued, using LH bottom corner as zero go along 2 on X-axis and 10 on Y-axis. Similarly for 7 and 1.That gives you the two co-ordinates required.Draw a straight between these 2 points and you should have the letters OCIMGGROGETUSO. Now look for anagram. I'm still strugglng to find where the name for the writer is!

Thanks a lot for all the help. I can now get on with my week! These crosswords are strangely addictive. By the way I couldn't find confirmation of the name in the across answers but it must be there somewhere.

Still hunting for the hidden across jumble.... I assume R.D. is not involved directly or I would have spotted him.

Go back to the preamble!

Does the answer entered across require anything to be done to the grid (i.e., is understanding the answer necessary for completing the puzzle)? I'm still stuck, and repeated re-reading of the preamble hasn't helped. Thanks.

Riversk, I got held up with this for ages as well and I'm sure quite a few others did too. The good news is that it has no effect on the overall grid. You have to think laterally about "ENTERED ACROSS" - match that with R.D.

Thanks. All clear now. Cute, but not worth the headache, in my opinion. Thanks again.
