Going Up (Meta)

Meta Prompt
The answer to the meta is an author
It's time to play "name that author". I've had this idea in my notes for a while. After coming up with the themers I thought filling in the rest of the grid would be a snap. Not so! Good luck as you jump into the grid and attempt to solve the meta. The answer to the meta is an author.
Check out "The MOAT Mini Pack of Marching Bands" here: https://www.ephesusscroll.com/about/interest4.html. US$5 gets you 7 Marching Bands which, hard enough on their own, now contain metas too. And once again there's a mega-meta!
Controllo se esistono file di gioco salvati...
) Glad you managed to pull off the grid, Ben -- it certainly increased my vocabulary! Thanks!1A
