The Strange Works of Gay Erotic Author Chuck Tingle

Earlier this month, EDGE reported on a bizarre gay erotic book with the amazing title "Kirk Cameron & The Crocoduck of CHoas Magick" - a fiction book by Mandy DeSandra.

While DeSandra's book sounds completely outrageous, in the best way, another erotica author has been making his way around the web this year for his equally strange fiction.

Dr. Chuck Tingle is the author of a number of books, which can be easily purchased on Amazon, including "Space Raptor Butt Invasion," "My Ass is Haunted by the Gay Unicorn Colonel," "I'm Gay For My Living Billionaire Jet Plane," and more.

Little is known about Tingle but according to his Twitter bio, he is an "Erotic author and Tae Kwon Do grandmaster. PhD from DeVry University in holistic massage." In his Amazon profile, he says he resides in Billings, Montana and is "fascinated by all things sensual, leading to his creation of the 'tingler,' a story so blissfully erotic that it cannot be experienced without eliciting a sharp tingle down the spine."

His hobbies are "backpacking, checkers and sport."

In an interview with the New York Observer earlier this year, the elusive Tingle opened up about his writing process. When asked where he gets his ideas from, the writer told the newspaper: "Thank you. best ideas come from meditation and deep focus on tingling others. sometimes they pop up out of the blue like on a walk to starbucks [sic] with my son or on a big old jet plane. my biggest inspiration is stpehen [sic] king because he gives me chills but in a fun way."

He was also asked about his stellar book covers.

"I make all my own art using the photoshop program on macintosh. really makes me think that love is real when people talk about the covers. my son thinks they're really good too," he said.

BuzzFeed also did a piece on Tingle, pointing out he's apparently also a stock image model, and reviewed some of his books, like "My Billionaire Triceratops Craves Gay Ass."

"First we had the story of Jeremy, owner of a "gay ass" and former owner of a pet triceratops turned billionaire cabaret dancer, Oliver," BuzzFeed writer Jenna Guillaume wrote. "Even though dinosaur and human relationships are frowned upon (what a world!), Jeremy finds he can't resist his rich former pet when Oliver takes him out.

In fact, they skip right over dinner and go home to have fun with Oliver's triceracock," she added. "This story just raised so many questions, like: How do dinosaurs kiss? Are triceracocks scaly? And why the hell would you skip dinner if your billionaire former pet dinosaur is paying?"

A personal EDGE favorite is the meta "Pounded In The Butt By My Book 'Pounded In The Butt By My Own Butt," which is an "erotic tale [that] is 4,500 words of sizzling human on gay book action, including anal, blowjobs, facials, rough sex, and litigious living novels." Also, "Living Objects Pound My Butt: 12 Gay Stories With Abs And Smiles," which begs the question, "Have you ever wondered what it would be like to have a wild night of passion with your own cute butt? Ever dreamed of running away forever with your chocolate milk?"

Tingle has just over 2,300 followers on Twitter (he's only following one person, however: Taylor Swift) and seems to Tweet often. Earlier this month, he promoted his latest masterpiece, "Helicopter Man Pounds Dinosaur Billionaire Ass," which you can check out below.

Though there is a good chunk of information about Tingle out there on the World Wide Web, the real Chuck Tingle remains a mystery. He could ultimately end up being just an amazing troll, or a next-level @Horse_ebooks.
