Serenity Now

Meta Prompt
The meta answer is something that's a core part of serenity.
May 2023 marked the publication of my first meta crossword puzzle, "Postcards from the Edge," the answer to which was my vacation destination, OUTER BANKS. Now that May has rolled around again, Peter Abide suggested that I create a "first anniversary" puzzle. Alas, Alan Kennan had just constructed a puzzle using the theme of "paper," the traditional first anniversary present, so the puzzle I ended up creating has a definite, but more subtle, link to my first one. This year has been full of puzzle fun and, I hope, a lot of improvement as well, thanks to the patient help of Peter, Alan, Cap'n Rick, and more of my dear Muggle friends than I have room to mention. What an awesome community this is!
