R.P. Falconer:
Which writer most influences your own writing -- Stephen King or Dean Koontz. Why?
R.P. Falconer
I would have to say 60/40 to Stephen King. There are qualities that each of them posses that I admire. For instance Koontz's ability to craft, create and depict settings is, I wouldn't say superior to King's as I think SK doesn't really pride him self on that facet of story telling. SK on the other hand excels in ideas, plot lines and an ability to make the mundane trappings of life anything but; Koontz comes in at a close second in terms of this. In short, I burrow from both, as they are equal emperors of the craft in my eyes.
