This was a fun one, with a nice, tight theme/mechanism.
Check out "The MOAT MEOW Mashup Pack" here. US$10 for 14 metas that don't always abide by the "rules" of the game: asymmetry, 2-letter words, uncrossed letters, who knows. And this time there's a mega-meta!

This one was very much not in my wheelhouse. Couldn’t even fill the last grid entry. But that’s what google is for, right?!
Once I found what I needed to find, it all became clear and came together nicely. Well done!

If you want help with a meta, feel free to PM me. The more specific you are about what you have and what you want, the more likely I can help without spoiling.
(And if I help you win a mug, I’ll be especially delighted.)

Very interesting mechanism and nicely instituted. Had some grid struggles but once again a lucky mistake led me to the mechanism. Very enjoyable!!
NUDGES!I am always willing to give nudges where needed; metas should be about fun, not frustration. Send me what you have done so far because often you are closer than you think!

Loved this one! Theme’s in my wheelhouse, fun metanism, and the clever clueing made for a challenging grid fill. Look forward to your next one!
