Lynne is a single Mum. She is educated to degree level in Philosophy, the Arts, Psychology and she is currently training to be a therapist. She is also a self employed artist.

 

Having been brought up in a strong Christian environment where repentance and forgiveness was always high on the agenda, she  had always been quite judgemental of single parents but when it happened to her, it completely shifted her sense of reality. Over many years she developed a deeper understanding of responsibility and compassion for herself and also, understanding that people find themselves in situations they didn’t plan, for one reason or another - Yet, that magical things, such as her son Theo, can stem from difficult times.

 

She has been writing to her death row friend for 18 months.
