I haven’t published a mini in quite a while. This one was seeded by 1A and 1D. I already had the clue ready for 1A, then put in 1D after coming up with a clever-ish clue. 8A has a cryptic clue – “can be” indicates an anagram – because I’m tired of seeing the answer clued as “fall bloomer” or “daisy relative.”

This is terrific! Regarding 8A (very clever, I think…not just clever-ish), I’ve been remiss in not thanking you sooner for sharing the link to simplydailypuzzles.com. The Solving Cryptic Crossword Clues page has been very helpful.
