I don't see how he could POSSIBLY not read books if he's a writer. Seems a bit odd to me.
My realm of interest, at least in terms of writing, lies in the comic book industry. One thing I really like about it is that you definitely get a sense of community there...the writers and artists are always checking out each other's work, they're FANS of each other's work. And if there's one thing I've come to find, it's that most good comic book writers READ good comics. They'll rave about what they like and rant about what they don't.
I suppose they all inspire each other in many ways, to either aspire to the level of someone's work whom they admire, or to beat the pants off some festering pile of shit book that they hate. But I think most of them still have their own distinctive voice among the choir.
