[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Haven't seen a lot of data on this, but it seems people rarely read fiction after a certain age. Anecdotally this seems to be true. Heck, even Cormac McCarthy and Philip Roth, two of America's greatest novelists, admitted in their later years that they had stopped reading fiction. Why is this the case?[/quote] I don't know, but at least anecdotally this is the case for me, and I got an MFA in fiction writing at 40. I'm now 53 and read and write mostly nonfiction. [/quote]
