Thank you so much, Captain2! I was convinced my E was correct, but now I see it has to be an M, and it makes perfect sense - now to tackle the left-hand side of the puzzle again!
I can see the definition and the PRO and L, but how does brother give us MY please- (unless the clue said BOTHER?)
my(!) - brother(!)
Thanks. Is brother an exclamation then, Lie-inKing? I don't ever remember hearing it used in this way.
Found it- it says North American. My oh my.

The 'support' bit is FOR, Fiction, not PRO. I had met 'brother' as a US expression, but had forgotten about it until Captain2 gave me the answer.
Yes, sorry- I meant to say FOR as in PRO/Supporting. (Clearly there is no PRO in FORMYL).
I have checked the paper and found there was an extra word (letter) in the clue

It reads OK to me, fiction-factory - I just couldn't work it out - not helped by having put the wrong ending on 24ac - I mixed up my singular and plural there.

PS Though I was doinfg it online - maybe the paper version is slightly different.
This puzzle doesn't appear in the paper as far as I know ...
