Here's the cryptic for the month. This puzzle started with the northwest corner, first cluing 2-Down and 9-Across. I took the slow approach cluing this puzzle, working on a clue or two a day over a couple of weeks. Hope you enjoy!

Thanks for all the feedback regarding last week's Twists & Turns! Back with a standard Freestyle this week. This puzzle is a 70-word, 28-block puzzle. 7-Down was the seed entry here, and I especially like how the center section feeds into the northeast and southwest sections of the grid.

Happy solving!
