Constructor's Note
Posted early due to my move.
Tips appreciated to help this Texan keep taking estrogen! Warning - puzzles often crass, anarchic, and approaching NC-17 territory.

      TIL there is a Ralph Waldo ELLISON… confidently put in Emerson and couldn’t figure out what went wrong from there

        When I came back to this puzzle for some edits, I admittedly forgot about Invisible Man

        Why did 9D sell the funeral products division? Too much red ink!
        Fun one!

          EMERSON/ELLISON tripped me up too. But fortunately "SON" gave me enough to go on to figure out GLIA!
