Chuck Tingle on Bury Your Gays and Writing to Prove Love is Real

In this episode of Read Between the Lines, Molly Southgate sits down with USA Today bestselling author Chuck Tingle to talk about his bold, thrilling, and deeply heartfelt latest novel, Bury Your Gays.

Known for blending horror, romance, and satire with a fiercely human core, Chuck discusses the inspiration behind Bury Your Gays—a dark Hollywood tale that pits creativity and love against systemic erasure, corporate algorithms, and literal monsters. We dive into the meaning behind the story, the importance of representation in media, and Chuck’s mission to prove that love is real even in the face of the void.

If you’re a fan of speculative fiction, queer storytelling, or just want to hear from one of the most unique voices in literature today, this conversation is not to be missed.

About Bury Your Gays

Misha knows chasing success in Hollywood can be hell. After years of struggling, he’s finally Oscar-nominated, and studio executives know just the thing to push him further: kill off the gay characters in his hit series—“for the algorithm.” When Misha refuses, he paints a target on his back. Soon, monsters from his horror-movie past stalk him and his friends through the hills of Los Angeles. To survive, Misha must face his past and risk everything before Hollywood—and the horrors themselves—bury him for good.

About Chuck Tingle

CHUCK TINGLE is the USA Today bestselling author of Camp Damascus. A mysterious force of energy behind sunglasses and a pink mask, Chuck has become an icon of boundary-breaking fiction, spanning romance, horror, and fantasy. Born in Home of Truth, Utah, he now splits time between Billings, Montana, and Los Angeles, California. Through all of his work, Chuck writes to prove one thing above all else: love is real, and it is the most powerful tool we have against the endless cosmic void.
