Philip Webb Gregg

I am a writer of fiction and non-fiction, focusing primarily on storytelling and eco-criticism. The central goal is to explore the complexities of nature in conflict with the human condition.

I am a contributor and online editor for The Dark Mountain Project, a publication which seeks to re-author the human narrative. I studied at Cambridge School of Art and I have a 1st in Creative Writing & English Literature. I reside somewhere between the words and the woods.

Philip is one of the members featuring their work as part of the ClimateCultures Quarantine Connection series. We shared his short story What We Find in the Guts of the Bodies that the River Gives Us on Day 2 of the 40-day series.
