Surely the "quotation" should be more quotable - and quoted - than this one? OK puzzle until then.

Who is KC?!
Grid filled ,but puzzled about the word play for 28ac - where is "group", 34dn - can't see any "joke" and 31dn- Exodus writer....


I have the 12 letter word mentioned previously, but now puzzling. Is the quotation in ODQ?

Thanks

28 is a hidden
34 - joke is “one”
31 - Google the writer

Don’t think it’s in ODQ but Google finds it readily

28Ac ‘group’ indicates a group of the letters in the final two words.

34Dn Check chambers for your 3 letters you have for ‘joke’.

31Dn Author Leon

Thanks to both - I now have a clash between 40ac and 34 dn!

It seems the answer in 31dn is not an English word, but there's no indication of this in the clue?

Dylan - suggest you reread the preamble

I am in deep trouble. I have a full grid and the 12 letter word but........

1) I only have one clash, 1ac with a down answer

2) Only one word seems to fit 31d, but I don't know why and it only has 3 letters of the writer in it.

3) I do not know what "the across answers thematic items" means

1) adjust 1Ac as necessary

2) 31Dn isn’t in chambers. The male is a male cat.

3) it means the letter that moved before solving

I have adjusted a couple of answers as per the theme but can’t see what to do to 1a?
