Gargantua creator (8)
I believe the answer is:
rabelais
'gargantua creator' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)
This is all the clue.
(Other definitions for rabelais that I've seen before include "Sixteenth century French satirical author" , "Francois ......., 16th century French satirist - sort of base liar" , "teller of stories" , "Sixteenth century French author of Gargantua and Pantagruel" , "bawdy writer" .)
