I can’t wait to read Dr. Chuck Tingle’s new hit novel Trans Wizard Harriet Porber and the Bad Boy Parasaurolophus, which is the only novel about a wizard in England that anyone has ever written.
Y'all thought
I’m curious like in all good faith what’s his actual writing like? Are these actually readable?
The writing is fascinating. From a purely technical standpoint, I would call Tingle’s prose “competent”; he knows what he’s doing and it reads just fine, but it’s not spectacular.
However, he has such a vivid imagination and is trying to tell such imaginative and utterly buck wild and unique stories that it creates a “forcing too much water through too small a pipe” sort of effect, which makes the whole experience even more delightful by maximizing how surreal it is.
Chuck Tingle is an icon of what outsider art should be.
