Thanks for the work on this script! I recommend you change your curl script portion to use quoted form of instead of escaping double quotes to avoid issues with special characters. Here's an example that uses each:

property app_auth : "your app auth here"
property user_auth : "your user auth here"


set complex_message to "this is & a complex '  & ( ( )\" message * that made it through."
set simple_message to "Looks like it choked on the complex message."

on old_way(message)
    set title to "this uses escaped double quotes"
    do shell script "curl -s -F token=" & app_auth & " -F user=" & user_auth & " -F title=\"" & title & "\" -F message=\"" & message & "\" https://api.pushover.net/1/messages.json"
end old_way

on new_way(message)
    set title to "this uses 'quoted form of'"
    do shell script "curl -s -F token=" & app_auth & " -F user=" & user_auth & " -F title=" & quoted form of title & " -F message=" & quoted form of message & " https://api.pushover.net/1/messages.json"
end new_way

try
    old_way(complex_message)
on error
    old_way(simple_message)
end try

try
    new_way(complex_message)
on error
    new_way(simple_message)
end try
