Blurbs

About me:

I'm a Type 4 on the Enneagram, with a strong 5 Wing and a Line to Type 1. I am a writer, a filmmaker, an artist, a spiritual person, a faithful friend, and much more.


I am 5'2 1/2" and curvaceous. I have a cute little nose and deep mysterious dark brown eyes. I have chocolate brown hair (currently, this changes often) that is just below shoulder length. I have often been told I give off a maternal vibe. It must be the Earth in me. I am a Capricorn with a Sagittarius rising and a Libra Moon. I am 33 years old. I live in Portland, Oregon US with my amazing boyfriend and often cute, but sometimes mischievous cats... and I absolutely adore it here. I am currently working for a company called TDM Ad-hold. I write advertising for onhold messaging... yeah,it's not glamorous, but I get paid to write *shrugs*.


I am a unique person and I appreciate the unique and odd in the world. I can ramble on about something of substance or talk about the importance of understanding that the Hokey Pokey IS what it is all about. I am a good listener, and I hold secrets well. I suppose this is why strangers spill their guts to me. Human nature interests me a great deal. I love trying to guess what makes people tick.


Who I'd like to meet:

Friends (Freaks Like Me), Folks in the Independent Film Industry, Writers and Artists

    "That Crawford Tillinghast should ever have studied science and philosophy was a mistake. These things should be left to the frigid and impersonal investigator, for they offer two equally tragic alternatives to the man of feeling and action; despair if he fail in his quest and terrors unutterable and unimaginable if he succeed."

    In the Midnight heaven’s burning
    Through the ethereal deeps afar
    Once I watch’d with restless yearning
    An alluring aureate star;
    Ev’ry eve aloft returning
    Gleaming nigh the Arctic Car.
     
    Mystic waves of beauty blended
    With the gorgeous golden rays
    Phantasies of bliss descended
    In a myrrh’d Elysian haze.
    In the lyre-born chords extended
    Harmonies of Lydian lays.
     
    And (thought I) lies scenes of pleasure,
    Where the free and blessed dwell,
    And each moment bears a treasure,
    Freighted with the lotos-spell,
    And there floats a liquid measure
    From the lute of Israfel.
     
    There (I told myself) were shining
    Worlds of happiness unknown,
    Peace and Innocence entwining
    By the Crowned Virtue’s throne;
    Men of light, their thoughts refining
    Purer, fairer, than my own.
     
    Thus I mus’d when o’er the vision
    Crept a red delirious change;
    Hope dissolving to derision,
    Beauty to distortion strange;
    Hymnic chords in weird collision,
    Spectral sights in endless range…
    Crimson burn’d the star of madness
    As behind the beams I peer’d;
    All was woe that seem’d but gladness
    Ere my gaze with Truth was sear’d;
    Cacodaemons, mir’d with madness,
    Through the fever’d flick’ring leer’d…
    Now I know the fiendish fable
    The the golden glitter bore;
    Now I shun the spangled sable
    That I watch’d and lov’d before;
    But the horror, set and stable,
    Haunts my soul forevermore!

    “While some may find scholar S.T. Joshi's claim in his introduction that Pulver “can take his place with that of the masters of our genre” (including Poe and Lovecraft) a trifle hyperbolic, all will agree that Pulver is a writer to watch. (Dec.)” – Publisher’s Weekly

    “Whatever your expectations may be, check them at the door. Pulver has a truly unique style for the horror genre, and this collection of short stories is a perfect vehicle for this sort of style . . . Pulver is an original.” -  Rick Kleffel’s The Agony Column

    "Some writers one admirers and others make one want to do as they do, or try. For me, Joe Pulver is of the latter type. His imagination is so vile so much of the time that it makes me giggle with amazement. And the prose so deadly visionary. I'm grateful that the pieces in this collection are those of a fellow horror writer who has raised the ante on what it means to be such a creature."

    On Amazon.com Wilum Pugmire posted the following on Blood Will Have Its Season --

    "Joe gave me this book in electric form at last year's H. P. LOVECRAFT FILM FESTIVAL -- and I read half of it, wanting to save the rest so as to read it in actual book form. Joe's readings at the Lovecraft Film Festival have left people stunned by the beauty and power of his work -- and this collection, long-overdo, is a firm and solid testimony of a writer with rare vision, dark visions laced with brutality and blood. S. T. Joshi, who is not easily pleased, has been stunned by this writer's new work. I sat next to S. T. as we listened to Joe reading last year, and S. T. murmured, "Remarkable, remarkable." I look forward to seeing Joe next month in Portland, Oregon at the next Lovecraft Film Festival, at which he and I will exchange new books of our weird fiction. If I seem to vanish during the H. P. Lovecraft Film Festival this year, you can pretty well assume that I am locked in my hotel room -- reading BLOOD WILL HAVE ITS SEASON, or cowering from the visions it has provoked. A fantastic talent of outstanding grace and power! "

    Rather nice I think!

    Thanks, Wilum! !!

    "This was no breath from the skies whose motions and dimensions our astronomers measure or deem too vast to measure. It was just a colour out of space - a frightful messenger from unformed realms of infinity beyond all nature as we know it; from realms whose mere existence stuns the brain and numbs us with the black extra-cosmic gulfs it throws open before our frenzied eyes."

    Blood Will Have Its Season

    By Joseph S. Pulver, Sr.
    Introduction by S. T. Joshi   Hippocampus Press 2009

     

    The dark, forbidding alleys of ruined cityscapes; the hopeless lives of brutalized whores, amoral hit-men, and vengeful-victims of violence—these are the landscapes and characters that fill the stories, poems, and prose-poems of Joseph S. Pulver, Sr. in his first collection. 

     

    “The prose of Joe Pulver can take its place with that of the masters of our genre—Poe, Lovecraft, Campbell, Ligotti—while his imaginative reach is something uniquely his own.” –from S. T. Joshi’s Foreword
