M J Whelan

M. J. Whelan lives in the heart of Northamptonshire, UK. Early each morning, you'll find her in her writing room, shaping her thoughts into words.

By midday, she is offering guidance, comfort and understanding to prisoners as she walks along the landings and the wings.

When evening falls, her cat claims her lap, and laughter fills the air as she shares stories, games, and precious moments with her grandchildren.

SENTENCED is her debut novel - a story more than a decade in the making. Through its fictional characters, M. J. Whelan explores, with professional insight and heartfelt honesty, the hidden impact incarceration has on the families left behind.
