Writer Bio
Dr Dreadful is an expat Brit living in Fresno, California. He agreed to move there after his wife told him she was from California, but now wishes he had inquired more deeply when he asked her to describe her hometown and she responded that words failed her. The Doc is the assistant comments editor for Blogcritics. He enjoys good, innovative music and is therefore at a loss to explain his fondness for techno.
