Hi all,
I made another thing!
The answer to this meta is an infamous historical figure.

Done the grid --- working on the meta.
Hoping for results before 4:00!

No luck so far with this meta or your previous one, but I just wanted to say thanks for putting them out there!

Thanks Laura!
I want to give a nudge here because I feel I made this one too subtle. There are no themers in the puzzle. The meta relates to one of the columns in the grid

Solution here:
Don't be so hard on yourself. It did take a couple of nudges, but once it was clear where to look it came together.

Nice meta. A head slapper for me. I had it early and even had the answer written down. I just could not pull it together. I had a reverse bias because of a similarity to one of the WSJ Saturday monthly puzzles. I dismissed the solution!

I finally got it, with a nudge from another solver. In retrospect I'm kicking myself for not catching on sooner.
