While Chuck Tingle may be best known as the author of Pounded in the Butt by My Own Butt and a proliferation of works in a similar style (shout-out to the Space Raptor Butt Trilogy as well as I Have No Butt And I Must Pound), these days he also writes legit and well-received horror novels like Camp Damascus and Bury Your Gays, and is working on a book about an influencer who is also a grave robber called Fabulous Bodies.
That doesn’t stop him from releasing the shorter works he calls “Tinglers”, the latest of which is particularly relevant to our interests. It’s called Pounded In The Butt By The Physical Manifestation Of Spending An Irresponsible Portion Of My Income On Warpounder 40k Miniatures.
What qualified Chuck Tingle to call out everyone who thinks they need another Warhammer army even though we haven’t finished painting the last one we bought? As Tingle explained on BlueSky, he used to play both Warhammer 40,000, where he collected eldar, and Warhammer Fantasy Battle, where he had both lizardmen and skaven, which he describes as his “main trot”. He’s one of us.
The plot of Tingle’s latest has “a handsome sentient battleship model” as its centrepiece, and promises to include “4,000 words of sizzling human on gay Warpounder 40K model action.” It’s available on Amazon, and I look forward to reading it right after I finish painting the Cathayan sky lantern I bought because it looks cool even though I don’t have a Cathayan army to use it in.
