A Thought About Douglass Clegg

I'm in the middle of reading a couple of books by Douglas Clegg. I finished the first one and now I'm on Nightmare Chronicles. I've read a couple of these stories before but if you had asked me I would have said that they were probably written by Clive Barker. Both men have a certain fondness for pain and cutting and torture in their writing. They tend to try and make this stuff erotic and sensual.

I have a news flash for them. Pain is not seductive when you live with it every day. It gets old pretty quickly. I cannot imagine anyone I know who lives with pain making the kinds of choices that these characters make. I'm just sayin'
