Cryptic #36: Alive in Arizona

My Thirty-Sixth Crossword Hello everyone. Now, it really has  been a while since my last cryptic - over 4 months! -, for which I can only apologise.  But I decided I should put out another one before my 2nd anniversary tomorrow, to make it 12 in one year. I'm not sure how regularly I'll be posting after this - school this year has been really hectic so far. Thanks to Jack H Keynes for test solving. Have fun! - GAIS, 25/09/22

Tidbits #5: A Bit of Printer's Devilry

  Long time no see! I said I'd release a different sort of puzzle after every 7th cryptic, and I was struggling for a while trying to think of what to do. But then I discovered the Printer's Devilry grid, thanks to  Jack Keynes  and  TeamCrazyMatt , and my problem was solved. They're a lot of fun to do, as well as bloody difficult (for me). The clues in this one are far from world-class, but they all work, I think. Hopefully I'll have another grid out in less than two weeks, before my 2nd anniversary... but we'll see, as the first week back at school has been INTENSE. Thanks to Jack Keynes, MentalPlayground and Liari for testing this one. Have fun! - GAIS, 11/09/22
