The Words of Every Song by Liz Moore

The Words of Every Song by Liz Moore

From the acclaimed author of Long Bright River and Heft, a novel that allows us to take a peek behind the curtain of the music industry

Liz Moore shows us the inner workings of an industry we've been fascinated with for decades. In these fourteen linked episodes, we meet a cast of characters from all the corners of the industry that we've come to glamourize. There's the arrogantly hip, twenty-six-year-old A&R man; the rising young singer-songwriter; the established, arena-filling rock star on the verge of a midlife crisis; the type-A female executive with the heavy social calendar; and other recognizable figures.

Set in the sleek offices, high-tech recording studios, and grungy downtown clubs of New York, The Words of Every Song offers an authenticity drawn from Liz Moore's own experience and brings an insider's touch to its depiction of the music industry and its denizens.

Liz Moore, a journalism graduate of Kansas State University, worked for ten years for daily and weekly newspapers in Kansas and Texas, where she won awards for her reporting, editing, and photography. She relocated to Texas and devoted her professional life to non-profit public relations, which provided her with a nice condo in a Fort Worth suburb and, eventually, two cats instead of one. Liz also spent five years in Washington, D.C. Liz chose her next phase of life, returning to the little town, because she was tired of cities and had finally written this novel. She has lived in Independence, her hometown and place of pre-college education, since 2008. She is the executive director of Independence Main Street, a program dedicated to conserving a historic downtown's beauty while also promoting its economic vibrancy.
