PUZZLE #356: Sudokurostic 2

PUZZLE #356
SUDOKUROSTIC 2

Below is supposed to be a sudoku/wordoku puzzle, but unfortunately, the whole grid is completely blank. To fill it in, solve the clues so that the answers fill out the dashes (one letter per dash), then transfer each letter to the grid according to the coordinates below each dash, like an anacrostic puzzle. For example, if the coordinates were "e5", then its corresponding letter should go in the square in row "e" and column "5". Not all of the grid's squares will ultimately be filled in, so it's up to you to complete the rest of the wordoku puzzle, making sure that each row, column, and 3x3 box contains the same nine unique letters without any repeats.

Once the grid has been completely filled, look through it like a word search to find the FINAL ANSWER: a proper noun that's at least six letters long


• Is more-or-less obligated to
   __ __ __ __
   a9 c4 e1 d8
Phoebe and Her Unicorn and Hi and Lois, for two
   __ __ __ __ __ __

   __ __ __ __ __ __ __
   d3 a2 i8 f7 i1 e4 b9
• What a screenwriter writes
   __ __ __ __ __ __
   g3 g9 b6 f8 c1 e6

Once you believe you've figured out the FINAL ANSWER, send it to either redhead64@chartermi.net or itsredhead64@gmail.com (though I'm more likely to check the second one) and I'll put your name on a solvers list once I post the answers in about two weeks. You can also use those email addresses to give me some comments and feedback (or even ask for a hint, though you'll be marked as having used one if you do so) or send me the answer to last week's puzzle, if you haven't already figured it out. If you have a printer and want to solve this puzzle on paper, just head below the break for a link to a .PDF version which you can print out!
