Stumped by these:

22a Flourishes by writer: a gripping subject for literary collection (14). From the crossing letters seems to be Shakespeareans, if such a word exists. Can't see how it parses.
24a. Indeed, lazy on vacation behaving like this? (4) i?l? Idly maybe?
18d. The genuine article for sale? Get out of hand again (7). Assume reallot, but not sure how this means "Get out of hand again".

22 Shakespeareana. Parsing is given on another thread - it involves Shakes = flourishes.

If you have gave something out with your hand and then take it back.Then wish to give it out again. Then you "Get (IT) out of (YOUR) hand again"

18d: The clue wasn't "get out of hand again " ...it was "get hand out again"
I took this to mean re-allot?
