Write all day on a regular basis? That's manageable (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

wieldy

'that's manageable' is the definition.
(synonyms)

'write all day on a regular basis?' is the wordplay.
'on a regular basis?' indicates alternate letters.
'write'+'all'+'day'='writeallday'
The alternating letters of 'writeallday' are 'WIELDY'.

(Other definitions for wieldy that I've seen before include "Easy to control" , "Manageable" , "Easy to manage" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
