I've got a part-time job travelersmed.com âYouâre Elmore Leonard,â I blurted, proving only that I could read. I introduced myself. He said something in return that shocked me, âOh, youâre the writing guy.â I knew right away that he was not familiar with my work but had noticed my book poster or my place in the program. Still, it was amazing to hear the author of âGet Shortyâ say âyouâre the writing guy.â If I had had my wits about me I would have responded: âI may be the writing guy, Mr. Leonard, but you are the writing MAN!â
