Hi, Naive, and welcome! Congrats on setting your first crossword on here. I liked 9a, 11a, 26a, 1d, 15d (while I loved the anagram indicator it might not be everyone's cup of tea) and 20d. I have a few observations which I'll put in the reply, although as I'm both a novice setter and solver please feel free to disregard.
Thanks Naive, these's some solid stuff here; I particularly liked clues such as 10a, 25a, 1d, and 15d. Orinoco has made some good points, ones I had considered making. I highly recommend Chambers Crossword Manual by Don Manley, the Chambers dictionary app, and clueclinic.com. All were of immense help to me.
