StemmyNug:
I’m curious if this is a well trod theme.  When coming up with ideas I often feel like something is obvious to me and must have been done before.

PLOTTWISTS (10)
COLTPISTOL (10)
STOPLIGHTS (10)
SLOPTROUGH (10)

Crossword Giant is a good place to find this information:

This doesn't mean no one would ever use again. A publisher who's never such a theme (or hasn't in a long time) might welcome it, especially if you use different themers than have been used for this theme previously.

StemmyNug:
Thanks again Mark, you’re a veritable cornucopia of valuable information. Can’t tell you how much I appreciate all your replies to my posts and others!

Using this tool it looks to me like a couple of the puzzles I’ve submitted already are pretty original themewise,

andrewmc:
Using anagram solvers have really helped me in the exact same scenario just like yours.

I would add the following resource for PLOTTWIST

https://wordunscrambler.org/unscramble/plottwist

As you can see it also gave 2 options such as SPOTLIT and WITTOLS
