Crossword Genius

Submitted to the current editor (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

presented

'submitted' is the definition.
('present' can be a synonym of 'submit')

'the current editor' is the wordplay.
'the current' becomes 'present' (I've seen this in another clue).
'editor' becomes 'ed' (abbreviation).
'present'+'ed'='PRESENTED'

'to' is the link.

(Other definitions for presented that I've seen before include "Introduced, brought forward" , "delivered pitch?" , "Made a gift to" , "Make a gift to" , "Put on the stage or introduced" .)

I've seen this clue in the Evening Standard.
