Johne Cook writes: [Neil Gaiman] When you start writing fiction, you start reading less fiction. Not sure why this is, but it's true." Would you say this is true for the rest of you? Ironically, I find the opposite to be true for me. The more fiction I read, the more inspired I am by the simple flush of creative proximinity to do my own creating. I think it's a matter of simple math... there are only so many hours in the day, and if you spend your reading time writing, well, you don't have that much time left to read. rone -- "I don't even know you.
