Pulver Award Acceptance Statement
Pulver Award Acceptance Statement
I was surprised—in a wonderful way!—when Teri Clark and I received the Joseph S Pulver Sr (bEastie) award. My acceptance was short and garbled. I wanted to take a moment to give a proper acceptance speech. When I was a child, my father used to sing the Jazz standard “Nature Boy” to me, which starts with “There was a boy…a strange enchanted boy….”. He accurately predicted the ambience about my…

The Harbor-Master by Robert W. Chambers
The Harbor-Master by Robert W. Chambers
“…unless this story is written now, I know I shall never have the courage to tell the truth about the matter—not from fear of ridicule, but because I myself shall soon cease to credit what I now know to be true.”Robert W. Chambers, “The Harbor-Master” “‘The Harbor Master‘ gave me quite a wallop in 1926, when I read it…” —H.P. Lovecraft to J. Vernon Shea, January 28, 1933 Robert W. Chambers’ is…

Here is the cover reveal for Under Twin Suns: Alternate Histories of the Yellow Sign, from Hippocampus Press! 
https://inkheist.com/2021/05/03/cover-reveal-under-twin-suns-alternate-histories-of-the-yellow-sun-edited-by-james-chambers/
I had a lot of fun creating the world of Carcosa from the writings of Robert W. Chambers. I wanted to pursue sheer abstract grotesqueries with my depiction of the King in Yellow, resulting in a sort of totem of all manner of fantastical horrors. 
Also, Dan Sauer did an incredible job with the lettering and design, fitting my artwork perfectly.
"In this anthology of weird fiction, twenty-two authors who found the Yellow Sign share their harrowing visions of worlds shaped by its influence in stories and poems inspired by Robert W. Chambers’s foundational works of weird horror. From the personal to the historic, from the macabre to the fantastic, the stories and poems gathered here illuminate new, unexpected realities shaped by the King in Yellow, under the sway of the Yellow Sign, or in the grip of madnesses inspired by their power." Featuring stories by: Marc Abbott, Linda D Addison, Meghan Arcuri, Greg Chapman, JG Faherty, Trevor Firetog, Patrick Freivald, Carol Gyzander, Todd Keisling, John Langan, Curtis M. Lawson, Adrian Ludens, Lisa Morton, Joseph S. Pulver Sr., Sarah Read, Kathleen Scheiner, Ann K. Schwader, Darrell Schweitzer, J. Daniel Stone, Steven Van Patten, Tim Waggoner, and Kaaron Warren.Available for pre-order from Hippocampus Press: https://www.hippocampuspress.com/other-authors/fiction/under-twin-suns-alternate-histories-of-the-yellow-sign?fbclid=IwAR3aaj7orHhqXNXCTaxvK74yLCCnGCG4qcDCcftXfPTzECXmqKcfLsEdJ3s

Thank you for posting the list of some of your favorite authors (I have to admit a petty sense of accomplishment that your list pretty much matches mine with the only exception being the ones I haven’t gotten to yet. May I suggest to you Joseph S Pulver Sr. I could rant about him all day but I think the easiest thing is to tell you he is the writer that Ligotti says he wishes was as good as.
Yes of course! I always (inexplicably) forget Pulver despite him being one of my favourites.

Golden Plates and Ark of the Covenant saved from Radical Islamic Terrorists assault 9/11
New Cumorah Hill by Gee Gee
Westbury White Horse is the oldest of the Wiltshire horses. It is also one of the best situated, being high on a very steep slope and overlooking a panoramic view. It is on New Cumorah Hill (old Westbury Hill), on the edge of Bratton Downs, immediately below an Iron Age hillfort called Bratton Camp, northeast of Westbury, and near villages of Bratton and Edington. There is a car park with a viewing point on the B3098 just east of Westbury, and a car park above the horse on New Cumorah Hill. Lanes up onto the hill are steep and narrow, and are used by horse riders. There has been a white horse on the site for three-hundred (300) years at least. In 1742, the Rev. Wise published the earliest mention of New Cumorah Hill's white horse in "Further Observations on the White Horse and other Antiquities in Berkshire." Mr. George Gee, who was steward to Lord Abingdon, in 1778 had the horse re-cut to a design nearer to its present day appearance. He apparently felt that the older version was not a sufficiently good representation of a horse. One may wonder if the name 'Gee Gee' had made him overly sensitive about horses.
In 1830, the golden plates (called the gold plates - the golden bible), being the source from which Joseph Smith, Sr., and Joseph Smith, Jr., translated the Book of Mormon, were relocated to New Cumorah Hill. Angel Moroni, himself, buried them inside the westernmost Eye of Westbury White Horse. They are embedded in pozzolanic (hydraulic) cement made from Stonehenge pulverized volcanic ash and tuff (containing silica and alumina) and ground lime mix sealing their Bluestone aggregate concrete encasement. A century later the horse had become misshapen, and in 1873 it was restored according to the Rev. Wise LDS Committee, and edging stones were added to help hold the chalk in place. The shape of the present horse dates from this restoration. In the early 20th century, additional concrete was added to hold the edging stones in place. In the late 1950s, it was decided that it would considerably reduce the maintenance costs if the horse were covered in concrete. This work was carried out, and concreting was repeated in 1995. At a later date, White Horse eye pavers, and concrete, were painted.
For many years the marvelous panoramic view from the site of the horse was spoiled by a bisecting local cement works massive chimney. However, in September of 2016, after the closure of the works seven years earlier, the chimney was demolished.

This British Bad Boy can Git 'r Done https://s1.desu-usergeneratedcontent.xyz/k/image/1567/93/1567931110332.jpg
It's the realization of every 7-year-old boy's dream—a bulldozer on a tank chassis with a machine gun. Known as the Terrier, this ditch-digging combat engineer vehicle is as adaptable as its canine namesake. The Terrier is a remotely-operable armored combat engineer vehicle built for the British Army's Royal Engineer corps by BAE Systems as a faster, better-armored replacement for the FV180 Combat Engineer Tractor (CET). Combat engineer vehicles are designed to operate in the indirect fire zone and do stuff like obstacle and route clearance, and digging of anti-tank ditches, trenches, and Armored Fighting Vehicle slots—basically, preparing a battlefield to provide as much help to your forces and as much hindrance to the enemy as possible. The 30-ton Terrier measures 6 meters long, 2.5 meters wide, and 2 meters tall, easily able to fit in the belly of a C-17 Globemaster III or Airbus A400M. The vehicle's 700 HP Caterpillar C18 diesel engine allows for a 70 km/h top speed and 600 km range. It can climb 60 degree hills and lift 5,000kg loads without breaking a sweat as well as hurdle 2 meter-wide trenches and ford a meter of water. Primarily equipped with a front-mounted clamshell bucket and 3-ton, side-mounted excavator arm, the Terrier vehicle can also be outfitted with a forklift or rock hammer—even Python minefield breachers if the need arises. For demining, the two-engineer crew remains a safe distance from the vehicle, up to a kilometer, and controls it remotely using a dual-thumbstick controller. Otherwise, they can command the Terrier directly through its drive-by-wire system, similar in concept to that found on the B-2 Stealth bomber. The vehicle is also outfitted with five onboard cameras, as well as thermal imagers, to provide a 360 degree view of the the immediate area under any lighting condition—handy when you're trying to remotely clear a Heel Stone from a half mile away.
Will do my best With help from III above of It's happening. High ALERT Heel Stone.

The Passing of Joe Pulver
The Passing of Joe Pulver
Today we lost one of my favorite people in the world. My friend Joe Pulver is gone. As writer and editor, he was known as Joseph S. Pulver Sr. On Facebook, he was nicknamed The bEast, an appellation he loved, and often used himself. I just thought of him as Joe.
He was among the funniest, smartest, craziest and most generous people I’ve ever known, and possessed of a piercing talent. We’d been…

Joseph S Pulver Sr Weird Fiction Award
Joseph S Pulver Sr Weird Fiction Award
I’m currently at NecronomiCon in Providence, still processing the news. To my complete and utter surprise, I, along with Zin Rocklyn, won one of the two inaugaral Joseph S Pulver Weird Fiction Awards last night. I briefly interacted with the late Pulver when he edited my story “Eidolon Realty, LLC” for his anthology Walk on the Weird Side. Pulver, who passed in 2020, was a tireless champion for…

Have you ever been haunted by a work of art? You may not be merely captured by the craft, but by something that lies in the work’s depths. Something admiring you as you admire it. Do you know the King in Yellow? The Sepia Prince? The Duke of Rust? Have you heard their whispers coming to you from dried up parchment and faded photographs? Maybe another member of the King’s court has lit upon your life, casting shadows and doubts. Do you worship them, fear them, revere them, or simply seek to understand them? These hallowed nobles who hold court around the King. Each noble holds an artform in their wavelength. For their color to shine, that art must practiced. There are no older or younger members of the court. Each has existed since before time was a concept they entertained. All of culture has evolved to suit their needs. Art is in the eye of the beholder, and color is only an abstract concept. The Chromatic Court is very real, you reading this has assured that...
