No clue numbers, this is a carte blanche (I think!). Wordplay in each clue yields an extra letter not to be entered in the grid.

Saucy adult logo is re-designed with good sense (11)
I have come up with 'sexological', but am not sure if I've made this up, and can't see what the extra letter is. Any advice/thoughts welcome.

I have put sagaciously (in pencil at the moment)
Question Author
Thanks, that's a much better answer! (I've hardly got started on this, but I'm hoping it will be good fun).
(SAUCY A LOGO IS)* - O = SAGACIOUSLY
I think 'Vital dog etc' has to begin with an S
Question Author
Boreas, 'vital dog' DOES begin with 's'. I got that answer, but don't know if you have! Post again if you'd like another clue for it.
Hi Never,

I have an answer that fits definition, but doesn't fit wordplay - so a hint would be very nice
Question Author
I'm hopeless at parsing clues - and I'm not exactly sure how this one all works out, but I know my answer's correct. The second word in the answer equals 'vital', and a three-letter word for 'permit' is in roughly the middle of the first word. Sorry if this is rubbish!
Yes, I get it now. So presumably the first three letters of the first word=dog but with a letter missing?
I have the dog now
Any hints for the bottom left corner? Just cant get the free party malarky
I am working on that now. I have finished the grid apart from the 's' at top left. Also stuck on the 'y' word.
Question Author
Boreas, the 'y' word is just an exclamation - I got it when I got the 3rd letter (from the down word).
I've got 'K' as the third letter.
Is it something like 'yukky'?
no, I have it now!
Question Author
Not 'yukky' - just a word expressing astonishment or alarm. The last letter is 's' - this is meant to help, but will probably just give it away. Sorry!
I have the 'y' word.
So, 'free party etc' looks like a strange one.
Question Author
'Free party' is easier than it first looked. 'YOU AND I' would get it quickly.
Yes. I think WE have. And I've just worked out the 'free party'.
I have the title of the published work and the first four words of the excerpt, but I am struggling to make the rest of it work. I don't yet have all the surplus letters, but those I do have don't seem to fit with the rest of the excerpt.
Question Author
You don't really need all the words - I've finished, but don't have all the extra letters. The published work and the two unused clues were enough to get what was needed.
