TOUCHWORD
This puzzle was written for patron M. Sean Molley, who supports me at the $20+ level on Patreon and is therefore entitled to suggest one word or phrase every month for me to incorporate into a puzzle. His March 2016 suggestion is used here.In a crossword, words cross each other; in this puzzle, they merely touch. More specifically, every letter shares an edge with at least one identical letter either immediately above or immediately below. The top and bottom rows are considered adjacent. (You can think of it as a diagramless, cylindrical Share-A-Letter puzzle.)
Arrange the letters in the shaded spaces to form the final answer, an 8-letter word.

3 Sharpened / “Electric Avenue” singer Eddy / Dirty movie

7 A farmer's hard-working son, possibly / Post-injury mark / Like expired milk
