Writer and priest and where to find him (5)
I believe the answer is:
eliot
'him' is the definition.
'writer and priest and where to' is the wordplay.
'writer' becomes 'I' (the person who is writing these clues).
'and' means one lot of letters go next to another.
'priest' becomes 'el' (I can't explain this - if you can you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'and' says to put letters next to each other.
'where' indicates anagramming the letters (I've seen this in other clues).
'to' anagrammed gives 'ot'.
'i' put after 'el' is 'eli'.
'eli'+'ot'='ELIOT'
'find' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for eliot that I've seen before include "See 14" , "One of two writers" , "T.S. or George?" , "The Waste Land author" , "T S . . . . . wrote ''The Waste Land''" .)
