No longer making quotations in dramatic style (8)
I believe the answer is:
exciting
'no longer making quotations in dramatic style' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this definition defines the answer.
'no longer making quotations in' is the wordplay.
'no longer' becomes 'ex' (prefix meaning former or onetime).
'making quotations in' becomes 'citing' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'ex'+'citing'='EXCITING'
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for exciting that I've seen before include "Stimulating, stirring" , "Causing much enthusiasm" , "moving" , "Arousing thrill or expectation" , "stirring things up!" .)
