I completely agree with the connection between text and reader, especially for comedy.
I'm not much of an authority on the craft of writing, sadly, since my own expectation is that the primary way to get better at said craft is to "just do it" and I rarely do.
I'd like to think that it is tightly related to the craft of reading, which I have, err, some experience with, but that's an assumption.
