Reclusive storyteller engaging model in saucy stuff (8)
I believe the answer is:
solitary
'reclusive' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)
'storyteller engaging model in saucy stuff' is the wordplay.
'storyteller' becomes 'liar' (someone telling lies).
'engaging' indicates putting letters inside.
'model' becomes 't' (Ford Model T car).
'in' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'saucy stuff' becomes 'soy' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'liar' going around 't' is 'litar'.
'litar' going within 'soy' is 'SOLITARY'.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for solitary that I've seen before include "reclusive" , "Lone; isolated" , "punishment" , "unique" , "not a Companion" .)
