Exactly.

And reading helps a lot with one's writing skills, too. I've seen lots of people advising budding writers to read a lot, both well-written stories and badly written stories, so they can learn what works and what doesn't, and how to understand the rules of grammar and punctuation (and even how to sometimes try bending or breaking those rules, depending on the type of story they write), and other things of that sort. I think some people tend to forget about that aspect, too.

Yes!
Reading is SO important. But tbh, I'd say that it's better to first read the "good" stuff, to work on your palate... I remember a year or two back I was reading the Dark Elf trilogy. The first book was atrocious, so badly written, but I somehow got through it. Then, when I started the second, I remember thinking "huh, it's not that bad!"
And then I NOPEd right out of that, because I figured those books were corrupting my brain and my ability to discern good writing from bad XDD
