I could write better crap then half of them. Now to be on topic: I don't do a lot of reading either, but there's one author I follow. Terry Pratchett. Best author ever. Comic fantasy genre that parodies everything from poiltics to quantum physics, all while telling the most entertaining stories I've yet to read.
