Hello Emma,
It's a sad story I'm afraid. I rewrote Token Girl because I thought I could make it better and submitted it to Amazon to be published as a paperback, but they considered it fell foul of their censorship rules and blocked it. In fact, they blocked my entire library until I promised to remove any other books that might offend them, which is why my published library is about twelve books smaller than it was. Token Girl has also been rejected from all the other publishers I sent it to, so it's not currently on sale.
Since then, I have written a couple of new books, but have not submitted them for publication in case they stir up Amazon again and I lose all the published books.
If you respond to my email: paulenock@btinternet.com I'll send you a free copy of the revised edition.
Thanks for your support.

Hi, Good to hear you are still writing. I have your entire Amazon catalog (I think). I'm more than a little irritated that Amazon has this seeming arbitrary policy applied to authors that fall into this category. Please consider another publisher for your new titles? Perhaps lulu.com, where censorship seems a little less prevalent? You can certainly have more than one publisher. Thanks. Keep writing!

Hi, I recently bought your book "A Passion For Running" on amazon. I really like that. On the book page you mentioned it was the 2nd edition before it's sequel. I would certainly buy that. But as it was announced in 2018 apparently, I wanted to ask if it's still planned to be published? greetings
