Quite soon returning from being in on a conference (4)
I believe the answer is:
anon
'quite soon returning from being' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.
'on a conference' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite understand how this works, but
'on' is present in the answer.
'a' could be 'an' and 'an' is located in the answer.
No letters remain.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).
'in' acts as a link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for anon that I've seen before include "Soon - nobody knows me" , "Of unknown authorship" , "coming after a call" , "Immediately" , "Nameless (abbr.); soon" .)
