ADDITIONAL FACTS:

The best Doctors are: 12, 4, 14, 11
Greg is also a Doctor, but unfortunately does not have a number or TARDIS.
He's a former academic with a PhD in identification and narrative ethics from King's College London, an MA in Prose Fiction from UEA, degrees in English and American Literature from Cambridge and Gallifrey.
He is a British and Irish citizen, raised in England by Scottish and Irish parents, now living in Scotland.
He answers questions about 'what happened' in his stories by asking the questioner what they think happened. This is almost always correct.
In a past life, he was a bookseller. The store was eventually turned into the set of a television show about the sale of mobile phones.
His hobbies include drawing, carpentry, home automation, solo journal games, and card games such as Magic: The Gathering.
He is afraid of eating oranges. He does not know why. Apples are OK.
He is married to a veterinary surgeon and shamelessly steals her jokes.
He has three cats named Bucket, Table, and Mop, who are very good boys.
As a volunteer behaviourist with Cat's Protection, he helps rehabilitate shelter cats.
He used to work on a farm during lambing and summer time. One pet orphan lamb imprinted upon him and followed him around daily, nicknamed Drogo for the prodigious strength he wielded against the other poor pet lambs who just wanted to drink milk.
He suffers from an intense fear of death relating more to the issue of non-existence than any pain about the particular moment of it all. This feels sensible. Due to the numerous near-death encounters he has had, this has deeply influenced his existential approach to horror and sci-fi.
He likes going to Disneyland, much like the previous heir to North Korea. It helps with the existential fear of death, unless you go on an oft-forgotten, bizarre, terrifying Kafkaesque masterpiece of a ride centered around Pixar’s CARS (seriously!)
