Continuing like this anon (4)
I believe the answer is:
soon
'anon' is the definition.
(synonyms)
'continuing like this' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'like this' could be 'so' ('like so') and 'so' is located in the answer.
The remaining letters 'on' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This explanation may well be incorrect...
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for soon that I've seen before include "Presently" , "in a minute" , "In the near future" , "In a little while" , "Willingly" .)
