Do te think that writers should be avid readers?

Not neccessarily, I think it depends on the person.

That's how I became a writer:
Studying my preferito authors' works and meshing their Scrivere styles together to create my own. Not everyone works that way, though.

They don't HAVE to be. If Leggere helps te come up with techniques o ideas, then sure. But some get techniques and ideas from their own mind.

It's a good idea, but te don't have to be. I am :})

Yes. te constantly gain ideas.

It depends on the person. But I think it helps learn new words and better grammer. It also inspires ideas if your careful not to steal. But no, they don't have to be.

I think it helps. I personally am an avid reader and I think it helps with my writing. But I don't think in order to be a writer te must be a reader.

In general it depends on the person but sometimes they are interchangeable. personally i was a bigger writer than reader for a long time in a matter fact it wasn't till the last anno and a half o so that i actually began Leggere committedly i've read più than ever believed possible for me i read Dracula, the invisible man, the legend of sleepy hollow, A series of unfortunate events the austere academy and otturatore, dell'otturatore island in the last 3 months. That may not sound big to a lot of te but it was huge for me. Ordinarily something thick like Dracula would take me a mese but it took me just a few weeks.
Leggere does help at times and is great to help te look at other Scrivere styles. and can give te inspiration as well i got an idea from the invisible man that i thought was a good idea

Yes, I think it's necessary. I haven't met o even heard of a writer that doesn't read anyway.
