About the Book

My Best Friend Was a Rock Star, Now he's Dead. After 2 decades as bass player for iconic rock band Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers, Howie Epstein took his role as Heartbreaker a little too far; he passed away February 23, 2003. His drug addiction would get him arrested and eventually lose him his job with the Heartbreakers. But there was far more to this man than the dash between his dates of birth and death. He will be remembered by most as an incredibly talented musician, singer and producer who succumbed to addiction. He will be remembered by many as a gentle soul, a lover of animals, a practical joker, a storyteller, a reliable friend who was there when needed - for as long as he could be. Through conversations and memories, these pages include stories Howie told and events that occurred, the author did not corroborate anything Howie said. No holds barred, no sugar-coating, the author is furious with him for being dead and makes that abundantly clear. But, you can't stay mad at a ghost forever. Grief, redemption, acceptance and closure are but a few things achieved...mercifully.
About the Author: Susan has spent her entire career working in the entertainment industry, primarily the music business, where she started at the age of 17. She spent the 80's and 90's in Montreal and Los Angeles until finally settling in Toronto in the 00's, or so she thought. In mid-2015, Susan realized the entertainment industrial machine was slowly sucking the life out of her, so she sold her house and moved to a one-horse town near the Quebec border where she currently lives with her 15 1/2 year old Schnoodle. A fish out of water in a town with no entertainment industry, Susan formed a Virtual Assistance company with other industry veterans whose sole intention is to provide affordable support for independent musicians and their management teams, while keeping a safe distance from 'the machine.' The ability to work from home and her new environment has re-ignited Susan's passion for writing, which in turn unleashed a torrent of suppressed ideas (largely due to since-expired confidentiality agreements.) She looks forward to whatever comes next.
