The Work

The commissioner’s Bosom Ink Story is unique and personal to them.
The commissioner’s Bosom Ink Story is created from their responses to the ten
questions provided online.
The commissioner will receive a Bosom Ink story, a loving reflection of themself and
another loved one to admire forever.
The commissioner agrees to pay the full commission fee of £50 at the
commencement of the commission by PayPal.
Bosom Ink does not provide preliminary drafts of the commissioned story. However,
the stories in the Online Library provide examples of previous commissions to view.
Bosom Ink will use all responses from the ten questions provided online to make the
final story acceptable. Bosom Ink will also conduct thorough research and contact
the commissioner directly by email during the 60-day production period to finalise
details if deemed necessary. Please see our Style Policy.
Bosom Ink has a 60-day deadline to complete the commissioned story.

The commissioner receives their Bosom Ink story through Royal Mail and a PDF
copy by email.
The commissioner must accept the commissioned story after Bosom Ink has
sent the final copies.
Returns and exchanges are not accepted.
The commissioned Bosom Ink story is printed on an A4 (210 x 297 mm) page of
Tintoretto Gesso Paper. This paper is made in Italy and produced by Fedrigoni,
which is FSC® certified, environmentally friendly ECF pulp, felt-marked on
both sides. Each page has the signature Bosom Ink smiley and logo gold
foiled and embossed in the bottom right-hand corner by Dynamic Print,
Norwich. The story has at least 500 words and is printed digitally onto the
paper in Century font. The commissioned Bosom Ink story has a title and
footnotes (if applicable) aligned in two columns on the page.

Style Policy
During production, Bosom Ink use all the commissioner’s responses to the ten
questions provided online; they research and contact the commissioner if necessary;
however, they create the story entirely through artistic interpretation, and therefore,
the story exists entirely in its own right. Please refer to the story examples shared in
the online library before considering a commission from Bosom Ink.
When commissioning Bosom Ink to write a personal love story, the commissioner
allows Bosom Ink freedom of style to create it. Bosom Ink writes British-English
flash-fiction stories across twelve literary genres, which are often lyrical and highly
sensory.

The commissioner is the copyright owner of their Bosom Ink story. The
commissioner can use their Bosom Ink story for any purpose they choose.
However, Bosom Ink has the right to be credited for its work.
Bosom Ink will only feature stories on its website library if the Commissioner permits
it in writing.

Moral rights and credit
Bosom Ink reserves the right of attribution. Bosom Ink must be appropriately credited
for creating the story.
