Jo Waterworth spent most of the 1980's as a Peace Camper and New Age Traveller. During the late 80's and early 90's Class A drugs were infiltrating the Traveller culture.

Many of her close associates started using heroin to come down after partying on ecstasy. Jo spent most of a decade living in a council flat and coping with the realisation that her partner, father of her children, had become an addict.

Writing was her lifeline in a shipwrecked family.

She is now rebuilding her future two years after his death.
