Welcome to the community, and thank you for the kind words :)
There are many better setters than me who've also tried to tackle introductory cryptics - one of my favourite recommendations are the Cryptic 101 series published here joeadultman.blogspot.com.
There's also a very welcoming community of Cryptic Crossword streamers on Twitch, I'm confident most of the streamers would be happy to answer any questions or help recommend appropriately pitched grids too.
