Not everybody "like/likes" his writing?
Can we say we must not say "likes" because of the presence of "not"?

Hi Daniel,
As "everyone" is an indefinite pronoun, we use it with a singular verb (which is "likes").
It has nothing to do with the presence of "not".
Example:
Everybody cheers for the winner.
Not everybody cheers for the winner.
Hope this helps
Cheers, Lance
