Whelan is a screenwriter, life-long actor, and award-winning audiobook narrator. She graduated with a
degree in English and Creative Writing from Middlebury College and Oxford University. While in England, her
flirtation with tea blossomed into a full-blown love affair, culminating in her eventual certification as a tea
master. When not writing her own books, you can find her reading other people's out loud into a microphone.
Her newest novel is "My Oxford Year."
