I'm a writer and this guy helps me so much. When he said "you know what I'm doing I'm trying to write" meaning this is why things AREN'T working -I can relate. I watch his videos to get inspired before I write. I want to get shorty some day.
Maybe Elmore Leonard didn’t want people walking around inside his house and on his carpets with their dirty shoes? It’s a very common custom in many European and Asian countries that you take off your shoes when walking into someones house/home. It’s considered rude and extremely filthy to walk indoors with your shoes on. I know that’s not the case in the USA but maybe Elmore Leonard felt the same about it as the europeans/asians. He, himself, might be wearing indoor-shoes.
For anybody who likes Leonard and enjoyed this interview, go watch the documentary ELMORE LEONARD: CRIMINAL RECORDS. It is outstanding and puts to screen everything he talks about here.
Ahahaha, he's basically the anti-Alan Moore! Both are brilliant, don't get me wrong, but their stances on film adaptations are totally starkly opposite.
