D. G. Gillespie
Like his protagonist, Matthew Diggerson, D. G. Gillespie is a writing instructor at a New England college, but unlike Matthew, his wife (Elena) never left him. They love animals and have had many dogs and feral cats (Elena is allergic to cats, so they can’t come inside). Like Matthew he creates Grammar Jam songs, which appear prominently in the third Digger book and have also been published in a scholarly article.
