Crossword Genius

Always, Edward turned outward (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

everted

'turned outward' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

'always edward' is the wordplay.
'always' becomes 'ever' (synonyms).
'edward' becomes 'ted'.
'ever'+'ted'='EVERTED'

(Another definition for everted that I've seen is " inside-out".)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
