Request written with certain enjoyment (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

pleasure

'enjoyment' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'request written with certain' is the wordplay.
'request' becomes 'plea' (plea is a kind of request).
'written with' says to put letters next to each other.
'certain' becomes 'sure' (synonyms).
'plea'+'sure'='PLEASURE'

(Other definitions for pleasure that I've seen before include "A desirable emotion" , "contentment" , "amusement" , "Delight, happiness" , "Delight, joy" .)

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