Chad Kultgen (born June 16, 1976) is an American novelist and journalist. He has published opinion pieces in The Huffington Post,[1] and was a staff writer for Hits and the Weekly World News.[citation needed] His works have been reviewed by Maxim, Penthouse, and The New York Times among others.[citation needed] He has several writing and production credits, including The Incredible Burt Wonderstone, a 2013 film starring Steve Carell.[citation needed]
Critics have maintained that his male protagonists are misogynistic and trite.[citation needed] Kultgen says he frequently "get[s] messages from people who didn't enjoy the books. They tend to be a bit irate and usually take the time to tell me that I'm the worst living writer, the world would be a better place without me, I have no understanding of women or all of my books should be burned."[2] A New York Times piece in 2011 interviewed people who asserted that characters in his works were based on them.[3]
