Crossword Genius

Article working for unknown author (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

anon

'unknown author' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'article working' is the wordplay.
'article' becomes 'an' (indefinite article).
'working' becomes 'on'.
'an'+'on'='ANON'

'for' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for anon that I've seen before include "Soon, precious stone" , "Not identified by name" , "Incognito (abbrev)" , "Mystery writer" , "Presently - unattributed" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph.
