Cryptic entries cracked by writer like me (10)
I believe the answer is:
serpentine
'cryptic entries cracked by writer like me' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.
'cryptic entries cracked by writer' is the wordplay.
'cryptic' indicates an anagram (a cryptic or obscure order of the letters).
'cracked by' means one lot of letters goes inside another (to crack can mean to create a divide in).
'writer' becomes 'pen' (something which writes).
'entries' with letters rearranged gives 'sertine'.
'sertine' placed around 'pen' is 'SERPENTINE'.
(Other definitions for serpentine that I've seen before include "Devious" , "Snake-like; mineral" , "London lake" , "Meandering" , "London water feature" .)
