Prompt: This meta has an answer.
This one is proving more difficult. I think although it is about as easy a mechanism as there can be it is apparently well hidden and tedious to weave through. .
Heres a starter nudge: and a second:
.....
And just for a quick taster, this one is easier. and shorter. https://crosshare.org/crosswords/kAMjT0 ... -the-thing
This should be simple and you don't have to wait a week for the reveal.

Just because it's intimidating, is no reason to be intimidated.

I took the road more easily traveled (The Play's the Thing) and that has made all the difference.
Will keep peeking at the other -- See what happened there? The end (of Keep) just became the beginning (of Peek!)
Thanks for the double dip of puzzles, woozy.

Solved "The Play's the Thing" but not the other one, even with the rather cryptic nudges!
Check out "The MOAT MEOW Mashup Pack" here. US$10 for 14 metas that don't always abide by the "rules" of the game: asymmetry, 2-letter words, uncrossed letters, who knows. And this time there's a mega-meta!

Okay, some nudges. And to think. I originally didn't even want to title this as I thought it'd be self-evident....

Thank you, woozy!
I was just not getting the loop business well enough. I had some of them but I was trying to go from top to bottom. Also, I included HEAVETO because of concepts of START and STOP in the clues.
This was certainly a great idea and well constructed!

A VERY clever metanism and a beautiful construction. Thank you for posting the nudges and the explanation. Wish I had been up to the challenge!
