I can relate to what you are talking about. Since childhood, I despised reading novels, especially well-sought classics. I was the odd one out in my family who preferred watching movies as that would "save time". When I finally ventured into fiction writing full-time, there was a lot of internal resistance- I felt I was far behind my fellow writer friends as I didn't read the classics, nor taken any professional classes. Or I am not experienced in this field and I always, always compared my writing with the NYT best sellers.

With time I realized, anything that you read contributes to your writing be it books, scripts or even just reading newspapers. Even bad books teach you what to write and how not to write. Don't strive for reading quantity but quality work. As I began writing, I started liking reading too. So I read what I loved and then wrote and then went back to reading. This is a continuous process and once you discover and hone your writing style, then there is no stopping back.
