So what did you do?

Craft is the more prominent feature of literary art than inspiration.

Inspiration is a necessity, while craft is a tool. Viewing other peoples work does nothing more than assist a writer by teaching him a variety of rhetorical devices, and new diction. Inspiration is the motivation behind writing. One cannot scribe without motivation, therefore one cannot write without inspiration. Viewing others work is not a necessity, and if you describe it as such, then I query - How does reading another work motivate one to write? If a writer should find motivation through another literary devices than the writer is inspired by their aspiration for knowledge, and by the knowledge that the separate author has provided for them. Without inspiration one cannot write, and if one cannot write then his talent will rapidly decay. Craft is purely a tool used by an eager writer to improve, but is not a necessity.

"Practice makes perfect" I couldn't have said it myself. This, as you put it, "inspired drivel" has guided people throughout history. Within the numerous people this saying inspired, is the basketball player, Michael Jordan. According to Advisortoday.org Michael Jordan devoted, "thousands of hours of practice" to develop his nearly perfect shot; proving that the rule of practice makes perfect is genuinely true. What you need to realize is that those hours were not spent watching and critiquing the shots of other basketball players, but instead were spent physically on the court with a ball in his hand, shooting at a metal rim. Similarly, you cannot rely purely on what you read to influence how you are able to write. In the middle of your argument, you stated in reference to a child learning to speak, "Of course he have the ability to speak, but if he don't use it he will lose that ability forever." Similarly, you may have the ability to write, but if you spend 50 years of your life reading philosophical novels' and then attempt to scribe what you have learned, you will find that your writing skills are in a derisory state, and that you will not be able to adequately describe your discoveries through writing. Also note that you did not address the comment that I made, "inspiration is motivation." If you are motivated to do anything, it is derived from inspiration. Using your example of a child learning the English language, this child is motivated (inspired) by innate feelings of curiosity. Of course you would not be able to write without words, but you would not have words without innate inspiration. Additionally, you answered my original question, "How does reading another's work motivate one to write?" by describing the situation of a writer with a case of writers block, after completely scribing all of his beliefs. You then suggested an easy fix for this case would be reading another authors work to "evoking" the "ideas" of the writer. Well, isn't "evoking ideas" a synonym for finding inspiration? There is no other way to put it, without inspiration a writer cannot write. Furthermore, if a writer cannot write then he will lose all of his writing talent.
