It's written and enclosed (6)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

penned

I believe this clue is a double definition.

'it's written' is the first definition.
(written with a pen)

'enclosed' is the second definition.
(similar in meaning)

'and' acts as a link.

(Other definitions for penned that I've seen before include "Corralled" , "Shut in" , "Caged, wrote" , "Wrote; enclosed" , "in captivity" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail and The Daily Express.
