A PULP EXTRA FROM SARGE PORTERA!!
Known for his interesting ‘pulp’ voice, his merging of pulpy worlds with our own, and his overall enthusiasm for all things Pulp, ALL PULP’s own Sarge Portera has little special thoughts and lists and other such miscellany that he finds from time to time…and shares with ALL PULP..so now we will share it with you…A PULP EXTRA FROM SARGE PORTERA!
PAPERBACK & PULP GENRES
I am always amazed & astonished by the sheer number of literary genres that paperbacks & pulps encompass! The following list is far from exhaustive. I’m, also, well aware that some genres & subgenres below may overlap each other. Hopefully, at best, it will give any pulp fan a general idea of the vast variety of fiction themes that are out there.

  3. Arabesque
  4. Aviation
