About

Hello. I’m Matthew Spearman.

I’m an author in search of an audience.

I have been a special education teacher at a number of Northern Minnesota schools for the past 14 years. I’m taking a break from that work to explore other interests including writing, blogging, and other ways to teach. I have four young children under ages 2, 5, 7, and 9.

As you may tell from some of my political writing, I am an unabashed liberal and life-long democrat.

Geminitao.net is my blog. It is an amalgamation of ideas, thoughts, rants, and riffs on a variety of topics.

Topics include politics, parenting, surviving suicide (my 14 year-old son completed suicide in 2004), creative writing, literature, and a host of other issues.

Readers are welcome.
