I've begun reading it, and I do feel like it's a story, but the "play" bits are suspect, yes. I think we should cover this with the same caution we do other things presented as in-universe texts, like All-Consuming Fire or The Book of the War. What The Shakespeare Notebooks tells us is "William Shakespeare, following his encounters with the Doctor beginning with the Love's Labours Won incident, drafted a play in which the Doctor was himself a character, entitled Hamlet…", as opposed to "the Doctor encountered Prince Hamlet of Denmark…".
