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

Paul Enock Hi,
The sequel was written, but never published for one reason or another. In fact, I didn't publish anything for a couple of years. However, much of the planned sequel to A Passion for Running has been absorbed into The Justice Trap, the first of my new books, and the ponygirl scenes comprise a major part of this book.
Happy reading.

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!

Paul Enock Thanks for the advice Billi. I shall certainly look into it. I do have another couple of books almost ready that I have written over the past 18 mths, but, as I said before, I'm hesitant to submit them to Amazon.

Thanks for the patronage.

Paul Enock 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 Paul, Where can we find your books such as a burden of eve, the thief, perfect bodies and showgirls?

Paul Enock Good afternoon. I'm afraid you've hit upon a sore point. Amazon has recently revised their content criteria and I have been obliged to remove these books from sale. In fact, I withdrew ten and have yet to find an alternative publisher. Fortunately, most of my favourite ones are still available and I hope one day to restore the rest. In my view, the best ones are: A Victorian Cure for the Disease of Love, The Re-education of Mrs Annabelle McBride, The African Acquisition, Farming for Girls, and The Dangerous Penitent. I have a new book almost ready for publication, another Victorian novel with an equally unlucky heroine, and I've started revising The Silent Service for resubmission to Amazon, but that's going to take a while. I hope you can enjoy those that are left.
Paul
