Sandysbookaday (taking a midwinter break) asked Brian Benson:

Brian do you read when you are writing? I have heard some authors say they don't because what they are reading may influence their writing, and some say they do and may in fact gain inspiration from what they are reading.......

Brian Benson I'm always reading something. I try not to let situations and characters from other books influence me. That's why I use all characters from real life. It's hard to influence my 'choppy writing style' as my daughter call it. Thanks for your question...:)
