A good writer does not have to be a good reader, but they often go hand in hand. There are some rare cases. There are those great genius writers who did not do well in school, like Scott Fitzgerald. He did so poorly in school and was not a great writer in the beginning, but was an amazing storyteller. I definitely think writing well is hard without proper education and reading skills. Reading will enhance your vocabulary immensely, give you fresh new ideas, strengthen your writing structure, and really help your writing improve.
